David,
That might work indeed.  However, I was thinking something on par with
say how Timeline was using an XML file, using something similar instead
of a JSON file.  It would also be easier to create, edit and manage it
in a live environment, making it possible for multiple exhibit authors. 
A simple xml editor could be created to edit and update a file in use. 
That way, users wouldn't have work around a spreadsheet and either
export it with Babel or get access to the google spreadsheet and do all
the publish/republish.  Just a thought, might be out of the scope of the
project.
Cheers,
+dk
