I should note that while you can use "this" (or any arbitrary argument name), it would be unusual in Python (which by convention uses "self" within object methods). I would also argue that "row" is more clear in this context than something like "this" or "self", as with the latter two, it is not clear whether they refer to the Row object or to the Field object -- "row" makes it clear that a Row object is being passed to the function.
