I seem to be having problems getting my head around the default argument to 
Field. 

I am using SQLite as the backend.

If I do:
Field('grade_date','date',default=request.now,required=True,notnull=True)

I get a database column with a DEFAULT of todays date, not what I want:
grade_date DATE NOT NULL DEFAULT '2010-08-27'

If I do not include the default argument in the initial define_table  but add 
it 
later todays date shows up in the form but there is no DEFAULT added to the 
column. 

What I would like to do is pass the SQLite date variable CURRENT_DATE to the 
table. At this point I am unclear as to whether default is associated with the 
table or the form.

Thanks,
