JFTR we are using a kind of hand made ORM in Bloodhound and there's also a way to make plugins use SQLAlchemy (plugin available @ t.h.o) . We didn't move forward to using ORMs , DAO or such kinds of DAL because Trac didn't in first place and it was very important for us (at the time) to keep our core compatible with Trac's .
