Consider:
db.define_table('person',
db.Field('uuid',length=64,default=uuid.uuid4
()),
db.Field
('modified_on','datetime',default=now),
db.Field('name'))
db.define_table('dog',
db.Field('uuid',length=64,default=uuid.uuid4
()),
db.Field
('modified_on','datetime',default=now),
db.Field('owner',length=64),
db.Field('name'))
db.dog.owner.requires=IS_IN_DB(db,'person.uuid','%(name)s')
you can do
db.dog.owner.display=lambda id: db(db.person.id==id).select()[0].name
and t2.displays(db.dog) will show you the owner's name not his id.
