That's cool. (I haven't looked at your code, sorry, but the idea is cool).

It would be cool to have some more 'clients' for this 'server' too. For 
example, a version of CDBI (or, better, DBIC :P) which backends onto 
HTTP to access a remote DB. Now imagine a web application for e.g. email 
or photo storing which I can now access from local perl as if it was a 
local database. Nice.

Also a java 'client' for applet frontends....
