Does form.vars include all the variables needed by the compute function?

Also, instead of:

**{f: v for f, v in form.vars.iteritems()}

you can do:

**db[request.args(0)]._filter_fields(form.vars)

_filter_fields will filter out the "id" field as well as any form.vars that 
are not fields in the table.
