Good point. Then one can do:
#

from Crypto.Cipher import AES
secret_key = '0123456789abcdef'
encryptor = AES.new(secret_key, AES.MODE_CBC)
from gluon.dal import SQLCustomType
compressed = SQLCustomType(
type='text',
native='blob',
encoder=(lambda x,e=encryptor: e.encrypt(x or '')),
decoder=(lambda x,e=encryptor: e.decrypt(x))
)
