Dude... it's the magic of dbAddTable in the MetaMapper object:
in object ToDo... add:
override def dbAddTable = Full(populate _)
private def populate {
ToDo.create.(....).save
}
When Schemifier adds a table, it will invoke the function specified by
dbAddTable and that's a perfect place to add the default ToDo item.
