There is a prototype couchdb backend. In the Maverick cycle KDE will finish transitioning mail data to Akonadi. If you want to develop new and better ways for users to experience mail, contacts, calendaring, etc. then I think a good first step is a well designed data store optimized for this kind of data in an application independent manner. Akonadi might not be a bad place to start.
