You couldn't apply it anyway - it's too old.

You don't understand all subtle details of SQLObject (which is ok).
The architecture works this way: to convert data to an SQL string column
validator's .from_python() method is called, and whatever it returns
(including a simple string) is passed to converters (see converters.py).
If you want to override datetime converter for all datetime columns -
just register your own converter:
def DateTimeConverter(value, db):
return "'%s'" % value.isoformat
registerConverter(datetime.datetime, DateTimeConverter)
