BEAUTIFY is not designed to take the entire global environment. The problem
is that globals() includes all of the web2py HTML helper classes. Because
BEAUTIFY is itself an HTML helper, it is serialized by recursively
processing its components. The serialization process checks whether a given
component has a callable "xml" attribute, and assuming such an attribute is
an instance method, it attempts to call .xml(). The problem is the helper
classes themselves do have a callable "xml" attribute, but it is not
actually an instance method in that case (it is simply an attribute that
belongs to the class itself) -- so calling it generates an exception.
You might try something like:
BEAUTIFY({k: v for k, v in globals().iteritems() if not hasattr(v, 'xml')})
But you're probably asking for trouble attempting to display the entire
global environment.
