The models get reloaded every request so you can just set the writable and 
readable attributes for the fields before creating the form and it will 
only affect this form.

For instance you could add this before your call  to SQLFORM.factory

db.auth_user.email.writable = db.auth_user.email.readable = False
db.auth_user.username.writable = db.auth_user.username.readable = False
db.auth_user.password.writable = db.auth_user.password.readable = False

(might want to use auth.settings.passfield on the last one)
