I would absolutely love to see this done this way.   We've been doing  
a lot of work to abstract the templating system interface for Jifty,  
but the model interface needs love to make that happen. Someone  
actively working in this direction would likely get me helping out  
rather a lot to push it forward.

Best,
Jesse
