1.- Use SQL Sintax in client side: Get rid of minimongo limitations on grouping and unions. Use Alasql on the client and normalize mongo collections.
2.- Use a SQL Connector: Try numltel's MySql connector. The disadvantage is it breaks deployments to meteor.
3.- Use mongo as a slave for relational database, keeping them in synch. MySql Shadow uses this. Also you might want to look at symmetric.ds to set mongo bidirectional replication with a lot of Sql engines.
