We you may know web2py has the ability to store table metadata in DB:

from gluon.dal import InDBMigrator
db = DAL(myconf.get('db.uri'), adapter_args=dict(migrator=InDBMigrator))

This is better for scalability as there is no filsystem IO.

How do people feel with the following:
- make the above the default behavior (no more metadata/*.table)
- eliminate logging in databases/sql.log as use log.info instead
- make migration always on on localhost and appadmin and always off 
otherwise
- create a script and an appadmin endpoint for fake_migration (partial 
database repair)

This can be done with a change to the welcome app in a backward compatible 
manner.
Hardest part is update the docs.
