Description
This story pairs with this issue pretty well. Whereas that issue is about adding support for dot notation to rack, this one is about having form_props generate form attributes that use dot notation instead of the bracket notation for the input names.
So instead of generating an input name that looks like posts[title], i'd like to give form_props an option so that it generates posts.title
