Hi again.

I had a look at jiql.
"jiql is a JDBC wrapper for accessing Google DataStore on Google App
Engine for JAVA.
jiql supports the use of standard SQL as a method for accessing
the DataStore"

Even if I had seen jiql earlier I wouldn't have considered it anyway
because,

1. I want the API to make perfect sense for working with the
datastore. "Standard SQL" doesn't meet this requirement.
2. I use GWT. Not JSP or any other technology to dynamically generate
pages on server side.
