Right, which makes it unsuitable as a general object serialization format.
which makes it unsuitable as a full-fledged generic Python serialization
format, at least OOTB (Django knows how to get model objects back from
json, and I think one could write a more generic json serializer /
deserializer with about the same limitations as pickle).
The OP was unclear what he meant when he asked about storing Python objects
in a sqlite database. In the general case json doesn't cut it.
I indeed assumed (possibly wrongly) that this would be enough, given the
use of a relational database. But as I said:

Or SQLAlchemy or SQLObject.
Not the same thing.
