I need to display a form with images inline, ie with <img> tags. The
default behavior for SQLFORM is to only show a <file> link on the form
(assuming I provide a download URL in the constructor, which I do).

What's the best way to do this -- if at all? Again, I have difficulty
"breaking into" the SQLFORM object... Am I doomed to write my own
upload logic?

BTW, I would really appreciate a more formal API for SQLFORM that is
more geared towards using it piecemeal rather than the single
{{=form}}, which is suitable less than half of my current
application's forms. Ideally, any magic that SQLFORM provides should
be exposed in a lower-level API as well...

Note: I'm not a hardcore Pythonhead, more the type of "enterprise"
developer that I think Massimo seems to have had in mind when he
called web2py a "enterprise" framework. ;-) I thought I would be able
to get going quickly with SQLFORM and T2 CRUD, but so far, it's been a
bit of an uphill battle, I'm afraid... All the more frustrating
because I think it's very very close to what I need.

Cheers,
-Peter
