Assuming the issue is with reference fields in tables that reference
auth_user, you do not set the "represent" attribute of the auth_user.id
field, nor is it necessary to customize the IS_IN_DB validator. Instead,
you should set the "_format" attribute of the auth_user table. After
calling auth.define_tables(), do the following:
db.auth_user._format = '%(first_name)s %(last_name)s'
Now, any field that references auth_user will get a default "represent"
attribute and IS_IN_DB validator based on that _format attribute.
