So the long and short of it is SQL would be a good common language for relational and NoSQL style databases.
I would agree with that, but since they different monsters (RDBMS and NoSQL), it will take a bit of tweaking to find a good dialect (how do joins work, etc). Of course it makes sense to adapt the NoSQL databases to the existing ANSI SQL rather than make existing ANSI SQL users switch to a new type of SQL that accommodates NoSQL, but we'll see what happens.
Google create a "Standard SQL," but I'm not familiar with it.
