Thanks for the update!
I'm passing all of the fields needed by the compute function. It looks
something like this:
dct_new_user = { fields here }
# new_user = db.auth_user.insert(**dct_new_user)
new_user = db.auth_user.validate_and_insert(**dct_new_user)
The former calculates the computed field, but the latter does not.
