Just out of interest, why would a db driver come into play? This is a spreadsheet we're talking about.
The mention of db schema was merely to ask why Calc doesn't have something like it. And I do understand that a schema for calc would be nigh impossible, spreadsheets don't have to follow any basic design principles, so the spreadsheet would be the schema, but I suggested a simple list of formulae as being useful. And now that I think about it, the detective features could possibly be expanded, first to work better across worksheets, second to allow people to show all dependencies on a sheet at a time instead of per cell, and third as some sort of "print preview", allowing a birds-eye overview of what's going on.
