Depends on your goals. If we're talking about a SQLFORM based on a db table, it might make more sense to have a created_by and/or modified_by field in the table. The field(s) could be set to readable=writable=False, and set the default to auth.user_id. Whenever a record is inserted or updated, you then have the id of the user.
In any case, the current logged in user's id is in auth.user_id (which is None if the user isn't logged in), so you could store that wherever you like upon form submission.
