Responding to some comments from Wari, Our Glorious Leader:
> I need an API for storage.

Okay, here's a first pass at the storage api.
----------------->8 storageApi.py 8<--------------------
"""
This module defines the api that any class implementing storage must
conform to.
"""
class Storage:

    # Storage types.
    COMMENT         = 1
    TRACKBACK       = 2
    PINGBACK        = 3
    SENT_TRACKBACK  = 4
    SENT_PINGBACK   = 5

    def allFilter( entry ):
        return true

    def get( self, type, entryId, filter=allFilter ):
        # Returns a list of all the data for that entry,
        # filtered by the filter.
        pass

    def store( self, type, entryId, data ):
        # Stores a bit of data of the specified type for the
        # passed-in entry.
        pass

    def search( self, searchTerm, type=None, entryId=None ):
        # Searches in the specified type and entry (if supplied)
        # for data containing the passed-in search term.
        pass
