The Google Datastore adapter doesn't use GQL but instead uses the Python
NDB datastore API. I think you can add the distinct=True argument to the
.query() method (at least for projection queries), so you might try
subclassing pydal.adapters.google_adapters.GoogleDatastoreAdapter and
customize its .select_raw method to allow use of the "distinct" argument.
