Hi Grig,

We did address this in libcloud's Java initiative.  After implementing a Java 
port of libcloud, we pulled SimpleCloud under the libcloud umbrella to provide 
storage, queue, and table services.  Following the libcloud design patterns, 
we've implemented working adapters for Amazon S3 and Nirvanix.  Rackspace has 
also expressed interest in contributing an adapter for CloudFiles.  Take a look 
at the Java repository for the implementation:  
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/libcloud/sandbox/java/trunk/src/simplecloud/storage

I think this would be great in the python base, too.

The Java initiative for libcloud did touch on this.  We pulled SimpleCloud
