Ok figured out what was causing that - I had one record with '0' for a
sire_id and no dog with id = 0. Fixing that up makes the representation
code below work. Yay! *But*... now the edit drop down list is showing
id's instead of names... scratches head I'm sure that *was* working
before....
I even redid the example from scratch and...still seeing id's instead of
names in edit mode. Blast need to try again tomorrow and see if I can
sort that. Well at least figured out one of the problems!

However that brings back a header 'dog.name' that mucks up the
appearance of the form. What I wanted to write was:
db.dog.sire_id.represent = lambda sire_id, row: db.dog(sire_id).name
if sire_id != None else None
However that produces:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'name'
Which stumps me I must say, since I can clearly see a 'name:' entry
displayed if I just leave off the '.name' in the code above...
