Hi Massimo, What about having a new 'referee_prefix' var in DAL, which defaults to empty string, and replacing:
colset[referee_table] = Set(db, s == id) with: colset[*referee_prefix+*referee_table] = Set(db, s == id) And then just have a way to override this 'referee_prefix' value as a web2py setting or so. This way backward compatibility will not be broken (because of the initial default empty string value) and we can change the way we access such back references. Can this be included in trunk?. Thanks, Carlos
