No, if I choose Sequel (http://sequel.jeremyevans.net) I want to use all the power it gives me, not some lowest common denominator.. Also not all projects needs models, you know, there's other data access patterns..

the concept of a model is not at all tied to a data access pattern unless you subscribe to model = ActiveRecord::Base inheritor in the Rails world.

Model is a well-defined term in the domain-driven design world, as in "Domain Model"
