In the online doc on computed field, the computed fields uses a field in 
the current table, and not in another table.

I modified the one-to-many example by adding a 'total_items' field on 
person. If I want 'total_items' to be the sum of all items the person 
currently has, and this field should be updated when an inserted/deleted 
'thing' for this person happens, what should computed be?


>>> db.define_table('person',
                    Field('name'),
                    Field('total_items', 'integer', compute=#lamdba r: r.??),  
# what should go here?
                    format='%(name)s')
>>> db.define_table('thing',
                    Field('name'),
                    Field('owner_id', 'reference person'),
                    format='%(name)s')
