we are using sqlform.factory a lot, but the way fields are shown/behave was 
changed from
2.15.4
fields = [f.name for f in table if  (ignore_rw or f.writable or f.readable) 
and (readonly or not f.compute)]
to
2.18.5
fields = [f.name for f in table if (ignore_rw or f.writable or (f.readable 
and f.default)) and not f.compute]

so in 2.15.4 it was no problem to have an edit form with fields like
readable=True, writable=False, default=""
this field having an empty string was shown disabled, great as expected.

in 2.18.5
this field will not be shown anymore, we need to set default=" " like this, 
which is
not very useful.

Is this a bug or feature, or is there a NEW common way to have empty 
readonly fields in an
edit form

Many thanks for any help!
