Just taking the example from web2py manual as below, how can I force web2py to show dropdown for father_id and mother_id fields with existing person items/values? For self-reference definition I cannot use IS_IN_DB validator, so there are no widgets displayed.
db.define_table('person', Field <http://www.web2py.com/book/default/docstring/Field>('name'), Field <http://www.web2py.com/book/default/docstring/Field>('father_id', 'reference person'), Field <http://www.web2py.com/book/default/docstring/Field>('mother_id', 'reference person'))
