On 1.96.3 I tried the new app wizard for kicks. I let everything
default except for the app name, "foobar". Wizard crashed.
Traceback (most recent call last):

Personally, I think this kind of wizard should not be packaged in with
web2py at this early stage in web2py's career. I would question how
many people would actually use it and whether it would be worth the
effort to maintain.
I'm not saying it isn't useful for newbies. I am saying that web2py
newbies are probably early adopters and less likely to need or use
such a wizard. Just my 2 cents.
