The Problem:

I want to make a special user entry form, but it's very much a special case. I also don't want to have to reapply a patch to this module every time it updates.

The Solution:

hook_inline_entity_form_controller_info()

This hook returns an array of the form:

return array('entity_type' => 'ControllerClassName');

This information is applied during hook_entity_info_alter().

And with a test.

Not sure what you gain by doing this.
The ability to add a controller after IEF, therefore overriding it?
You could just use hook_module_implements_alter() for that, while we'd keep on using
a standard hook (entity_info_alter()) instead of inventing a custom one.

Yah, I figured it out. :-)

Thanks for your attention.
