I'm not sure what you want to say here.  If you apply this to databases, my 
answer is: if you want to use persistent objects in such languages, don't 
use a relational database, since it's just the wrong tool.  Storing stuff 
like XML snippets or Python pickled objects or whatever in tables in a 
postgres database is just like using a 40t lorry to commute to work: it's 
possible, but it's kind of silly.
