[ZODB-Dev] ZODB and ORBit-Python problems

[John D. Heintz]

I agree that using Python for a query language is at least as convenient
as any other I've seen.

The two reasons I would like to see more focus on querying though are:
1) Query performance
2) Cross database querying

Of course both of these can be addressed within a pure Python querying 
solution.
