There is already a channel/entry system much like that of ExpressionEngine, and administrators can create new channels in the Admin, specify which fields belong in it, and start storing/searching documents without a line of code. Again, thanks to ExpressionEngine for the inspiration on that one.
So far we've used channels to manage things like: Blogs, Knowledge base, Staff procedures, Bug reports, Customer reviews, and much more. It's early still but I expect the channel/entry thing to be a huge feature for administrators.
Also for developers, channels/entries make it really easy to mockup new features without writing a new data model. For example...
{put $params.custom_data in "/entries/custom-data"}
It just works. This entry will appear in the Admin and can be fetched again with get("/entries/custom-data")
