I noticed the thread on a SQL backend died down, but no one answered my
question about what SQL features we'd want beyond the naive ones supported
by Berkeley.
In the meantime, I know there are people who'd like this flexibility. So
how's this as a gameplan: implement a SQL subclass of Database that
performs naive SQL methods, work out a reasonable schema, and make any
changes to DocumentDB/DocumentRef to make them more abstract (i.e.
Serialize/Deserialize). Then as methods are desired, they can be added to
Database. I've done this with the Berkely classes already.
This is still a large number of changes, but there's interest in
developing it, so why wait? It won't affect 3.2.0b1, but it seems like
something.
(Remember, I don't use SQL much, so I may be saying something silly.)
