I also find it a bit glunky - easy to guess that comes from the Java world :-)

Your ReadWriteFeatureStores notes are of interest to me. I've started
working with SQLAlchemy, and I find it very goo - its model is both
simple and powerfull. Don't know much about Django though.

Btw, have you heard about GeoDjango
(<http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/GeoDjango>)?
