It's something I've often though about. I've used databases in many projects, both web and not-web based. And I am now sure that Django would have been a great help in those non-web applications as well.
The problem would then be to strip Django of all those web-specific libraries it's bundled with in order to lighten it and keep only the SQL specific parts. Only if needed, of course. Actualy, you can find examples about non-web applications where pdf [1] or csv [2] are created dynamically in the Django doc, and even using a template to send emails [3].
