It definitely seems interesting. The big problem I've been looking for the right tool to fix is simple document based storage with solid secondary indices supporting aggregate queries. A SQL syntax is a big plus for this because it is very easy for many people to write a SQL group by statement to get the aggregates they want but much harder to write an ElasticSearch or Solr facet query or a MapReduce job. Especially if you want relatively fast results.
