This could be a compelling point. I've seen deadlocks in an app that tried to use both ZEO and PostgreSQL via the Storm ORM. (The thread holding the ZEO commit lock was blocked waiting for the PostgreSQL commit to finish, while the PostgreSQL server was waiting for some other transaction to either commit or abort -- and that other transaction couldn't proceed because it was waiting for the ZEO lock.)
