This functionality could be included in the new DAl but there is a workflow issue perhaps you can help me brainstorm it and resolve it.
If we do, web2py will have three source of information that may be conflicting: 1) the table description from the model 2) the table description from the metadata 3) the table description as surrently in DB without 3) web2oy assume that 1) overrides 2) and eventually does a migration. If we have 3 sources of conflicting information how do we decide which action to take (migrate? how? what is right?). To me the workflow become nontrivial and may not be obvious what needs to be done.
