If nothing else, writing this has made me think about it a bit more :-) Yeah I find it quite an interesting problem – I think active record is what I am looking for – though the Doctrine 2 stuff sounds good.

There are quite a few options available, most of them are here: http://martinfowler.com/eaaCatalog/. I'm very much looking forward to the new version of Doctrine, because after I tried implementing a Row Data Gateway, I realized that I was spending way to much time on implementation (testing, fixing, extending etc.) and switched to Doctrine because I needed something ready to use. It’s just how ActiveRecord works :)
