[Discuss] No-SQL Database Recommendation?

Just that I dislike SQL, I don't want to have to maintain a separate 
code base of stored procedures, I don't want to have to use Python to 
assemble SQL on the fly either.

I would like something that has a nice Python API. But if I can't I 
can't. If the no-SQL part has to be discarded, so be it.

I don't need relational features, but I don't mind if my database 
supports them. There is nothing in my data that needs a free-format 
key/value features. Maybe there is a nice Python interface to PostgreSQL 
that hides SQL bits, but I doubt it.

I support the idea that irrational prejudices are irrational, but I also 
support the idea that aesthetically pleasing tools are good, make for 
better results, etc.
