me too, but in a different way.
I'm working on an app and waiting for web2py 2.0 to release it to the
public.
It contains a function able to serialize form in "bootstrap" styles (i.e.
form-horizontal, form-vertical, form-inline) ....
With some additional work maybe that could be included to provide more than
the current 'table3cols', 'table2cols', 'divs', 'ul' styles of the forms.
Right now it's called into the view, i.e.:
{{=twitter_form(form, 'form-vertical')}}
