I get an error for orderby=~db.test.field - is it just reverse order
that is not supported? I didn't see this mentioned in the manual.

for a standard database (eg postgres) "belongs" would be faster,
right? Because I am using this same code for both GAE and a Linux box.

insert/update is already supported on GAE, so what would get/put add?
