Specific support for Cassandra (or any other non-SQL tool) probably won't ever be in Django itself. It certainly isn't going to happen for 1.2.
However, we are interested in adding the interfaces necessary to allow a non-SQL backend to exist as an external project, much in the same way that Firebird and DB2 are externally supported SQL database backends.
There is a already a group of people working on a prototype for this interface. Depending on the progress they make, this interface might be added in Django 1.3. Most of the current efforts are targetting AppEngine, but any solution that gets to Django trunk will need to be agnostic of the needs of any specific storage engine. Having someone with Cassandra knowledge helping out would be beneficial. See NonSqlBackends for more details.
