I had a similar thought.. However, I ended up using DbForms (www.dbforms.org). Dbforms does a good job of providing fairly basic database centric GUI. It allows you to build all your JSP pages off of an XML representation of your DB via XSL. A friend of mine wrote an XSL stylesheet to transform between Torque's format and Dbfroms format.
I also added in some of the foreign key stuff from torque to my custom DbForms XSL stylesheets so that the pages would be forign key aware... If you like I can share my code, and show you the db stuff in action...

So I had the thought; if Torque is smart enough to generate the data layer for a given data schema, shouldn't it be (easily?) capable of generating the generic UI layer also? I'll probably start attempting to do so, as I think that once done, it would save me tons of time, but I just wanted to see if any of the devs who know the codebase a heck of a lot better than I do had any comments on its feasibility.
