Agree that it will better to reuse the code but, please correct me if im wrong, validators will only trigger if the form is rendered into a view as they lie into the form's components? Will it work if the form is html hardcoded? Im just using web2py server side and creating the html using the form data (fields, attrs, form.errors).
About the id field, i thought it didnt make sense to add it as it does not serve any purpose when the form has a NullAdapter. Would be easier to create custom html without having to pop the field. Removing it would break compatibility only if anyone has found any use for it on this particular case, which is posible but unlikely.
