Display a related entity in context of the parent is old stuff and could be found little every where if you search around. But finding samples to change or modify attached child entities is not so clear. One thing that differs if you render your iframe with a related entity is that it gets loaded during the form onload. This could be used for your advantage to do validation etc (on child/related entities witout callout logic ~ offline enabled = fast GUI response) but has a price of potential slower form onload.
Well enough, heres the code samples and yes it's just samples. Copy and past to either onload or onsave of your form. Slight modifications are needed to fit your entity names or fields.
