As long as the custom field does not have type='boolean', SQLFORM will not convert it. But that's actually a problem, because then your form.vars value will be a string instead of a Python boolean. However, you can also add a custom validator to the field that will convert to boolean. This approach is nice because it (a) is handled entirely in the table definition and does not involve any form callbacks and (b) allows the underlying storage type for the field to remain boolean. If you don't want to bother with a custom field type, you can also just use an integer field as an alternative.
