Massimo, thanks for the reply. I wasn't able to get it working with what you said but this seems to have done the trick instead:
Field('registration_time', 'datetime', requires=IS_DATETIME(), writable=False, readable=False, default=request.utcnow), essentially, the requires field seems to have done some magic that the other fields weren't doing. Thanks!
