Interesting approach. My guess is that Slide is a little heavy to do what you want, but you might want to look at the wedbav server source code - specifically, the xxxMethod.java sources. You may be able to better understand how it interacts with the underlying store API to determine how to return data back to the client. Essentially, you are going to want to implement a custom store instead of using the default file or JDBC store to return the proper listings for your stored procs you have installed, and return the CSV or excel binary format as the content of the stored procs.
