I've asked the other day on #snapframework, and the response was "that
use case is not very relevant for any of us but we know people are
interested in that", so it does not sound as definite 'no', but who
knows...

Why should Yesod not go into (more) advertising? ;)

I did not try (hard) enough neither with Yesod, nor with Snap, but
none did not look 'natural' to me either. Maybe it's because I did not
do any web programming and being only exposed to Django-way of things.

We hope it will change when we go deeper...

Heh, I vote for PostgreSQL although sqlite3 would be probably enough
to serve blog(gy), but I assume those will be supported as well.

OK.

Wish you some 'enlightenment'. ;)
