You can quite easily (and elegantly) update 14 different tables from one form, using one request and one controller method. You can very transparently do it with ActiveRecord associations, so that you're operating on only one instance of a model, or you can do it very opaquely, where you instantiate and update several models. Or you can just run an UPDATE statement; those haven't gone away.
