Meh.  If you ever come across a Python ORM that isn't in some way awful, 
let me know :-(

Beware of eggs.  They put everything on the front of sys.path no matter 
what value PYTHONPATH has, so they completely bollix up the frequent 
case of having a stable version of a package installed system-wide, and 
an unstable one in development in one's SVN tree.  A terrible design choice.
