Maybe Massimo's ideia can work for you.
But don't be afraid to count on custom forms. They give us much more power.

Doesn't
db.table.field.writable = False

I have a situation where I need to adjust an SQLFORM field to be

Is there a way to set an SQLFORM field so that it appears as a label
on the form itself, but is still writable for the database?
For reference, I'm doing this with a field in the form returned by
auth.register, so I cannot insert code between the form creation and
the accepts call. I believe I'm restricted to working with the model
before calling auth.register, or by using custom forms.
