How about along the lines of convergence?
I'm thinking specifically along the lines of the schema and queries.

With the schema - I was thinking along the lines of reversing the process  
and instead of Doctrine or Propel interpreting the yml to generate the  
models, picking up schema via events (via the plugin) when generating the  
models.  With an event based approach - it would allow a method to have an  
extendable custom schema - ie: extendable verbs.  It would be slower - but  
model generation is an infrequent process.

Convergence would mean that there's only one schema for both propel &  
doctine.


Regarding queries - while complex and having political issues - having a  
common query model for both Doctrine and Propel would facilitate  
transitioning between them.


Just some out-loud thoughts.. :)
