Exellent point but there is a much easier solution.
<script>
$(document).ready(function() { $
("input:visible:enabled:first").focus(); });
</script>
This will always focus the first visible field of the first form.
I now added it in web2py_ajax.html and will be the default with the
next web2py version.
Never underestimate the power of jQuery!
