I assume from your message that it doesn't just handle it correctly
out of the box?
You *can* add arbitrary rules to formmaker for choosing and setting up widgets:
from turbogears.fastdata import formmaker
@formmaker.column_widget.when("some condition")
def user_widget(column):
...setup widget as desired...
return widget
There *is* a rule for foreign keys already.
