If I'm understanding you correctly, what you have in mind is a
triplestore. A database for storing purely relationship triples and
Close. What I have in mind looks more like just pure objects and
pointers. Think in purely abstract terms at this level. It's possible
to have one to many relationships from one object to many other
objects. It would be possible to group sets of objects together by
using a single "proxy" object in this database that refers to the
others. But I'm starting to digress.
All of which are possible in a TripleStore :)
Or an Object-Relational database, but a triple store would likely find
more support in the community.
I would encourage looking at rdf triplestores seriously, if the graph
approach is the direction that you want to go in.
