It has been mentioned previously, but sql style statements are actually supported by Amazon's SimpleDB for some time now. I think it would be a valuable addition to web2py's DAL, however, just like GQL, SimpleDB also has some quirks, so some compromises will probably have to be made. I'm not sure I have the time to implement it all by myself, but as I've been using SDB for some time now I could be of help. We probably don't want to talk directly to the SDB servers (it's a SOAP/XMLRPC type request) and do the network/parsing/session handling stuff by itself, but rather use the python-boto library which handles all this stuff transparently.
