since there's no such thing as "common NoSQL features", each datastore
would need its own modifications, so i think the common attitude is
that most of these features don't belong in the ORM.

also, most NoSQL datastores have very simple APIs, so thin wrappers
are in many cases more appropriate than a full-fledged ORM. Other,
"thicker" abstraction layers tend to be application-specific, so they
could be on extra modules, instead of in Django core.

finally, even if Django doesn't support a specific datastore, as long
as there are good Python libraries, you can use them just nicely, even
from the templates.
