Hi Malthe. z3c.dobbin looks quite good and transparent. In my opinion, 
this is much closer to what integration ought to look like for CA. BTW, 
I noticed that z3c.dobbin is zpl but ore.alchemist that it depends on is 
gpl. I think all the other zope flavors of sqlalchemy are under zpl. I 
believe there was a recent effort to bring the sqlalchemy flavors 
together under a single package. Not sure what progress has been made.

In any case, this direction looks like a good one. It would be 
interesting if dobbin could map for storm but it appears to rely heavily 
upon ore.alchemist. I believe storms advantage is that it is faster than 
sqlalchemy since it doesn't have to worry about pooling connections, 
mappers, and more.  I'd be interesting to see a similar approach with 
storm. Good job on this.

Regards,
David
