I'd join in too.

I'd love to see something that was component-oriented enough so that I
could, for example, decide whether to use a relational database, or
ZODB, or just a bunch of text files to handle persistence. Something
that works "out of the box" with only Quixote as a requirement (or at
least only depended on third-party Python packages, but not on other
installed software) would be tremendously helpful.
