I think the issue is not as much out of the box, rather than working reliably and across multiple platforms. For example pycdb would not work out of the box with python 2.5 there was an API change that needed to be applied (found the solution in a blog post). It also will not work on Windows. What we could do instead is make the back end swappable, the interface for an on-disk-dictionary is fairly simple so it does not seem like a big undertaking to have multiple options. This would allow people to champion their favorite backend, without having to lock out others.
