I believe I have a solution in the last commit: 44904e47f5b5eec89b06ec332bd3094ec76ec3dd
If should allow to do db.mytable.myfield.readable = True @action('index') @action.uses(db) def index(): db.mytable.myfield.readable = False and makes db.mytable.myfield.readable thread safe while, every http request, sees the default values defined at the top level. I have tested the module I created to achieve this but I have not tested its application to the Field class. Also this is not necessarily final since it is a first version of the threadsafevariable library. If you can think of more ways to test it, it would be appreciated.
