This is a known issue. When TinyMCE was written, widgets used to make
a copy of mutable params (lists and dicts), update the copy and place
this copy as the instance's attribute.
However, this "magical" behavior changed a long time ago and params
passed to the constructor override class attributes. This
unfortunately broke TinyMCE's intended behavior but I decided to
leave it as-is so it behaves like any other widget.
I've just released 1.0.6 to add a new parameter called "new_options"
which behaves like "mce_options" did before. Any dict you pass as
this parameter will update "mce_options" without discarding it's
previous values.
Your code would look like:
sampleForm = widgets.TableForm(fields=[
TinyMCE(name="sample",
#I believe jsonify.encode will take care of
#converting False to "false" for you
new_options=dict(convert_urls=False),
...
