Very cool, and very readable stuff!

Leveraging memcached's ubiquity of client libraries as a means to provide other backend services is a cute hack.

Seconded. I looked at a lot of the NonSQL alternatives recently when writing my A/B testing framework and ended up settling on MemcacheDB simply because since Rails can already talk to memcached you get persistent, name/value storage for free (from the client's perspective).

For what it is worth, Memcachedb and Tokyo Tyrant have used the same trick. I think I came across anothe key/value store this summer that also offered memcached protocol support.
