This is ridiculous, but I would love a REST interface to a SQL server. I do a lot of AppEngine work and although I love the datastore and write super-optimal queries, I would really love the ability to pull a SQL datasource in every once in awhile.



Check out the extremely cool HTSQL from Clark Evans!


Not exactly RESTful but you might find some utility in this, developed at and open-sourced by the NYT: http://code.nytimes.com/projects/dbslayer

(edit to add: this is mysql-only, unfortunately :) I forgot about that part when I remembered it off-hand.)
