Reverse order is supported, orderby=~db.test.field, orders descending
where 'field' is a field in your table.
eg. orderby=~db.test.title to order by title field decending.

Yes a relational database can do this in 1 query, GAE would require N
queries or 1 batch get by id.

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

Using batch get/put/delete would allow selecting, inserting/updating,
and deleting of multiple records (up to 500) with a single database
request rather than 500 requests.
