Personally, I would not want my Web framework to place any constraints
on my persistence strategy. I'm okay with object persistence for some
projects -- not everything really suits an rdbms -- but it's a
separate problem.
If someone wants to grow an uber-framework that does constrain such
things, I would hope it was built upon smaller, independently usable
pieces.
