Very interesting method.
In theory all tables can be defined and generated this way.
Tables could be defined via forms, enforcing the proper creation
sequence (tables with fields that reference other tables will have to
be created later in the process). Or the generation has to be
controlled via a
In web2py you can do something like:
# define a table 'meta' that describes another table 'from_meta'
db.define_table('meta',Field('colname'),Field('coltype'))
# make sure it contains something
if not db(db.meta.id>0).count()
db.meta.insert(colname='your_name',coltype='string'))
# define from_m
