How to I make jqGrid show its edit window in a specified container, not its own modal dialog?

Question

I'm trying to use jqGrid's editing functionality, as demonstrated under row editing in its demos and docs. However, instead of having jqGrid open a javascript modal dialog box, I would like the edit window to appear in an another page element alongside the table.

In essence, I want code that reads like:

jQuery("#table").jqGrid({
    ...
    getRowEditingContainer: function(row) {
        # [Return a DOM element to put row editing form in]
    }
}

Is there a simple way to do this?
