851	New SQL query API	aaronsw	Adrian Holovaty	I'm not sure how to put this nicely, but Django's SQL query API is pretty bad. I remember excitedly thinking of switching my project to Django and then seeing this terrible syntax and just giving up entirely. Indeed, I probably would never give Django a second look if I hadn't had lunch with Adrian. pub_date__date__lte='2005-01-01' is not just unintuitive, it's ugly.	enhancement	closed	Database layer (models, ORM)		normal	invalid			Accepted	0	0	0	0	0	0
