You're right - check out JPA, using say Hibernate as the implementation.

Just annotate your pojos and it automagically takes care of persistence without needing a single line of SQL - it really is that good.

http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/annotations/reference/en/html/entity.html

I think it's amazing, and I could imagine the same annotation approach working well for persisting your objects to XML too.

However I would argue that if Hibernate fulfills your needs, you never needed a SQL database in the first place - what you needed was ACID persistence. Why not just use something like Berkeley DB JE, which doesn't have the overhead of a query language at all - and is significantly faster because of it.
