the table i have:, common_type and grade is just another table with only 1 
field

db.define_table('coil_type',
    Field('common_type_id', 'reference common_type', label='Type'),
    Field('grade_id', 'reference grade', label='Grade'),
    Field('alternatives', 'list:reference coil_type'), <-- this is 
displayed as string input with +- after that
    Field('test1', 'list:reference common_type'), <-- this is displayed as 
multi select (which is correct)
    auth.signature)

1. alternatives field is displayed as string input with +- after that in 
appadmin
2. alternatives field does not check if the input is invalid. For example: 
i insert 1 coil_type, and then i edit, and insert number 3 in alternatives, 
it does not give error.

my guess would be that somehow data in coil_type is not (yet) linked to 
list:reference so no data is found, hence the string input is used instead 
of multi select input

Having list:reference should ease my development, so i would like to have a 
solution for this kind of problem, thank you
