You could always make use of tuple-unpacking and try something like
[element for (element,) in cursor.fetchall()]
It feels slightly more pythonic to me, though not by much.
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply! Mostly I wanted to make sure there wasn't already a standard solution out there.
For me, it just feels goofy to write something like [row[0] for row in cursor.fetchall()], but I understand where you are coming from.
I like the cursor subclass idea so maybe I'll take a shot at something like that.
