Can we find the solution/s that fix the Python database world?

from someAmazingDB import *  

class Task (model): 
    title = ''
    isDone = False

db.taskList = []
#or
db.taskList = expandableTypeCollection(Task) #not sure what this syntax would be

db['taskList'].append(Task(title='Beat old sql interfaces',done=False))
db.taskList.append(Task('Illustrate different syntax modes',True))

#at this point it should autosave

#we should be able to reload the console and access like:

>> from someAmazingDB import *
>> print 'Done tasks:'
>> for task in db.taskList:
>>     if task.done:
>>         print task
'Illustrate different syntax modes'

I'm a fan of Python, webPy and Cherry Py, and KISS in general.

We're talking automatic Python to SQL type translation or NoSQL. We don't have to totally be SQL compatible! Just a scalable subset or ignore it!

Re:model changes, it's ok to ask the developer when they try to change it or have a set of sensible defaults.

Here is the challenge: The above code should work with very little modification or thinking required. Why must we put up with compromise when we know better?

It's 2010, we should be able to code scalable, simple databases in our sleep.
