	Well, yeah, that's a fair analogy, but it's also an alternative to  
PythonCard and lots of other projects that have attempted to make  
visual development of GUIs in Python possible. I don't have any hard  
numbers, but more than half of the regulars on the Dabo lists, as  
well as those I've spoken with at the last few PyCons, don't use the  
database stuff at all.
