NOT... read my update below...
maybe i'm the only one that didn't realize you could do this, but in case it's useful and not obvious to others, you can display any fabrik list within a form (without modifying a template which would probably work too) using the fabrik content plugin and a 'dummy' calc element on the form.
i have posted this in f3.1.x forum which is where i am using it, but it should work on any fabrik version.
to do so, create a 'dummy' element on your form that is a calc element with a calculation of:
return '{'.'fabrik view=list id=4 listtablename___elementname={thistablename___elementname} showfilters=0'.'}';
of course replace the '4' with your list id and the element name you want to filter by with listtablename___elementname and the value for the filter coming from your form with thistablename___elementname (or that + _raw).
then turn on plugin processing for the form under 'options->process joomla plugins'. the default for a form is to process in details view only... so change it if you want the list to show up in your form.
i find this to be a useful way to show 'related data' when looking at the form. all links on the related data list work too!
