Also, you might want default=uuid.uuid4 instead of default=uuid.uuid4(). I
believe the former will call the uuid4 function separately for every record
inserted (probably what you want), whereas the latter will generate a single
unique uuid only once per call to db.define_table (which presumably may
endure for more than one record insert, depending on what your code does).
