I don't mean to be pessimistic, but in my experience so far, using "relational ideas" with the datastore pretty much results in queries that consume way too much CPU time (because it involves too many datastore hits). Data modelling using the datastore is quite different than normal relational modelling, and trying to adapt it will likely just (slightly) delay the inevitable.
