sounds like this will be useful.

StringListProperty is a native gae type now supported by web2py:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastore/typesandpropertyclasses.html#StringListProperty
http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/7d284c9fa488e855

To get around the like problem you can do something like this:
Model.all().filter('ngrams >=', word).filter('ngrams <', word +
u'\ufffd')

Check out Thadeus's code for a full example.

There's also info how to do this in the docs:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastore/queriesandindexes.html#Introducing_Indexes
