Description

**Use case**: I have 57 records to create.

**Idea**: I put them in a JSON file, as a list of records. I go to the `Bulk Add` form, click `Browse`, pick my file and the 57 forms get filled with the provided data.

Some notes:
- It could be `{data: [{record1}, {record2]}` like a JSON dump from the server
- If `id` and `last_modified` are present, they are taken into account

Research direction

Start by locating the Bulk Add form and its Browse control, then trace how records are represented and added to the form. Support a JSON list or a data-wrapped list, including id and last_modified when present, and verify that the selected file populates all record forms.
