TYPO3 4.1 integrates a new feature called IRRE. Did you already work
with it? IRRE supports 1:n and m:n relationships and is also capable of
handling bidirectional symmetric relations.

You can download the irre_tutorial from the Extension Repository.
The disposal is described in chapter 3.3.2. on page 28 at
http://typo3.org/uploads/media/Inline_Relational_Record_Editing.pdf

Probably that's it what you're looking for?
