The problem is the 'requires' for the table_name field is set at the time
the permissions table is created:
table.table_name.requires =
IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_SET(self.db.tables))
and at that time, db.tables only includes the names of the tables that have
already been defined.
As a workaround, you can add the following line somewhere after your last
table definition (or possibly at the top of the appadmin.py file):
auth.settings.table_permission.table_name.requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_SET(db.tables))
