I have a lot of experience with OpenRPT - it's the embedded reporting tool for Postbooks / Xtuple open source ERP/MRP system. As a standalone tool, you have the design part, and the renderer that your end user would see. I spend a lot of time tweaking things from within the ERP system for clients.
Works well with postgresql, not so much with other databases -- might work with mysql or sqlite, and there's been talk of ODBC connectors but the Xtuple guys are focused on postgresql. It is easy to install / setup if you Not sure how you'd use it in a Python app -- it's QT based, and C++ based, not Python based. It's about on par I'd guess it's about on part with Crystal Reports -- maybe version 7.x -- no graphical query / database connector tools. They call the coding system "meta sql" -- so you can embed parameters etc. and get prompts for filters....and a hell of a lot easier to use than Jasper/ Pentaho stuff.
