I have a problem using SQLFORM.grid and its fields option. 
fields= enables me to specify which fields to retrieve from the db, and 
those fields are then displayed to the user. 
The problem is, I would like to read from the database also some additional 
fields, which are NOT displayed to the user, but that can be used in 
generating links.  For instance, I would like this code to work.  Notice 
how I am not including db.submission.contest_id in the fields, but I would 
like to use it in the links (hence, this code is currently broken). 

Is there a way to do this?  Shall I implement in web2py a new optional 
parameter for SQLFORM.grid called extra_fields? 
Many thanks! --Luca

    grid = SQLFORM.grid(q,
        fields=[db.submission.id, db.submission.date],
        csv=False, details=False, create=False, editable=False,
        user_signature=False,
        args=request.args[1:],
        links=[
            dict(header=T('Contest'), body = lambda r: 
                A(T('Contest'), _href=URL('contests', 'view_contest', 
args=[r.contest_id]))),
            dict(header=T('Submission'), body = lambda r: 
                A(T('submission'), _href=URL('submission', 
'view_own_submission', args=[r.id]))),
            dict(header=T('Feedback'), body = lambda r:
                A(T('feedback'), _href=URL('view_feedback', args=[r.id]))),
            ],
        )
