I have been playing with the exact opposite, representing a database as a file structure where databases show up as top level folders, tables are subfolders, and each row appears as a form like file automatically generated from the schema. You can see a screenshot of such form in [1] which you can edit and save back, effectively enabling anyone familiar with Dropbox to edit data on a database as it just look like a form to fill

The project is oss [2] and the storage connector is "mysql". It even handles foreign key by creating links to another folder with a search query to find the table row it's associated with
