How to add two sonata_type_collection fields of the same property in the same admin?

Suppose you have ArticleAdmin and CommentsAdmin. It is easy to add one-to-many editing in Sonata:

$formMapper->add('comments', 'sonata_type_collection',
    array(
        'by_reference' => false,
    ),
    array(
        'edit'   => 'inline',
        'inline' => 'table',
    )
);

However, suppose I have more complicated CommentsAdmin form and it can has two visualizations depending on the kind of comment in it. I would like to display two sonata_type_collection fields in ArticleAdmin for grouping different types of comments into two different edit tables.

Adding another add('comments', ...) is of course incorrect, and adding add('comments2', ...) results in exception.

I will manage separating comments between two fields in admin, but how to create sonata_type_collection field on a virtual entity field Article::comments2? How to tell Sonata Admin what kind of collection should it be?

I'm not sure if this will help you but:

->add('categoryHasMedia', 'sonata_type_collection', array(
                'cascade_validation' => true,
                'label'             => 'Logo\'s'
            ), array(
                'edit'              => 'inline',
                'inline'            => 'table',
                'link_parameters'   => array('context' => $context),
                'admin_code'        => 'appstrakt.project.admin.category_has_media',
            ))

By using admin_code you can tell which admin class you want to use for that sonata_type_collection if I'm not mistaken.
