I create item with two subitems:

When if I add a new item, I get the following picture:

Nested repeaters are not supported ;) I have also already made that experience.

But the data saved in database properly. I should only delete excess subitems manually. Bug occurs only when I create a new ITEM.

I think I found the solution!))) Adding this code into root\modules\backend\formwidgets\Repeater.php will solve the problem

 protected function processExistingItems()
    {
        $loadValue = $this->getLoadValue();
        if (is_array($loadValue)) {
            $loadValue = array_keys($loadValue);
        }
        $itemIndexes = post(self::INDEX_PREFIX.$this->formField->getName(false), $loadValue);

------> if (!$loadValue) return;

        if (!is_array($itemIndexes)) return;
        foreach ($itemIndexes as $itemIndex) {
            $this->makeItemFormWidget($itemIndex);
            $this->indexCount = max((int) $itemIndex, $this->indexCount);
        }
    }

I spent a deeper testing and discovered that my solution is wrong. (((

it seems that Nested repeaters are now supported
