thanks for the response. I was thinking about this overnight and I'd have to agree, it'd probably be best to use a "hybrid" approach as you were mentioning (I'm already breaking out the radiobuttons into an on-template loop: it wouldn't be much more than that, I'd assume).
thanks again,

Hi Chris,
I'd say there were two ways to handle this. The data that you really
want is the number of rows, you radios are really just to help the
user choose a value.
Option #1 -- Use a custom field.
You can create your own custom field type, but this is probably
overkill for this application.
Option #2 -- Use the raw post data.
You don't have to use Manipulators and in more complicated forms it
may be easier not to (or you could have a hybrid aproach, where you
use a manipulator, but don't put the {{ form.field_name }} in your
templates).
Good luck,
John.
