[html-formfu] nested repeatables not showing data

[Ascii King]

The new code changes will only save the first row in a has_many to 
has_many relationship. Anything beyond the first row is not saved. 
Similair to the problem of not having the counter set correctly in a 
repeatable.

Have you allowed for the counter NAME to be incremented since it is now 
in a repeatable element?
