redirect starts a new request. I suppose your redirect URL can contain args and vars based on what comes in (see docs on the URL function), and then it would be up to the redirected controller to process them. In other words, you pass state in the URL. Your controller or view could use these get_vars or args to set form elements as you wish, or the view could embed those settings in javascript, which then takes effect on page load.
Another option is to use web2py's component. Instead of reloading the whole page and creating a new request, the submit actions refresh a component in the page which contains the grid or form which has the data you want to refresh. In this case, you never leave the page you are on. This looks better too, it's very smooth. Read the components chapter in the book.
