If you're interested, I've wanted to work on this too. In particular, creating an online, PaaS database service so you can store and manipulate data via SQL queries without needing to setup and maintain (and share across machines) your own sql server. It's something I find myself wishing I had.

The key parts of Access aren't that it can have SQL queries, it's that it (a) has a UI where you can easily edit tables (without worrying much about schemas and so on), (b) has a UI where you can plug tables into WYSIWYG-edited reports, and (c) has a UI where you can plug tables into WYSIWYG-edited forms.
