Could be used for proxying redis connections, be it for clustering or I don't know, add sophisticated access control or something.

You could expose a memcached cluster as a redis server using this. (Not sure why would you want to do that.. Maybe if you have an existing memcached cluster and have redis client code?)

Or you could go crazy and implement the entire set of redis commands on top of sqlite and call it a "strongly persistent redis" or something like that.

It's just a nice building block, I'm sure people would find ways to abuse it :)
