Unless you're going to hide the entire actual DB behind views and  
stored procedures, then this is generally a REALLY BAD IDEA.

You now have no level of abstraction from your database layout and  
your data model.

Which means that changing the database layout (without changing all  
the apps which work on that layout at the same time) is going to break  
things, which then need fixing in multiples places, and releasing in  
sync - I.e. you just achieved very very close coupling to your DB  
schema, which you want to avoid (for reasons stated above) if  
possible...
