Well, the MJoin, Queries over graph databases, and  Multi-query
optimization using eddies and STAIRs all look interesting to me in the
context of Drizzle.

Additionally, I keep prattling on about moving query parsing initially
and later perhaps even some query optimization into a plugin interface
Then, if we can allow clients to do those tasks and transmit the
serialized results to the server, we could have a win in our cloud-based
world.

(note, not everyone agrees with me that this is worthwhile. Jim Starkey
did this or a form of it some time ago and says it turned out to be a
bad idea. But I think the world may have changed enough since then to
warrant another stab. I could be wrong though. :) )

If you haven't already - browse through the blueprints too.
