There have also been several FUSE projects aiming to do this - just
google "fuse database filesystem"

libferris (http://witme.sourceforge.net/libferris.web/) aims to turn
just about _everything_ into a filesystem. Pretty interesting project.

>From http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8901:

"With libferris, the boundary of your filesystem extends to include
PostgreSQL, XML, db4, RDF, the X Window System, Evolution and much
more."
