We study a scheme M closely related to the set of pairs of nxn matrices with rank-1 commutator. We show that M is a reduced complete intersection with n + 1 irreducible components, which we describe. There is a distinguished Lagrangian subvariety Mnil sub M. We introduce a category C of D-modules whose characteristic variety is contained in Mnil. Simple objects of that category are analogous to Lusztig's character sheaves. We construct an exact functor of quantum Hamiltonian reduction from our category C to the category O for type-A rational Cherednik algebra.
