1000% agreed. I've actually written something (not open source) that largely solves this problem for myself and my company, but, its a very hard problem to solve in general. The largest benefit that I find from it is that it allows you to make some things that would done directly (EG: UPDATE statements) be by a web UI. Figure if you had a particular table that only got updated once or twice a year, is it worth it to write a bunch of CRUD code for that? No. Is it worth it to write 20-ish lines of JSON to describe the table and avoid a bunch of problems that direct DB updates cause (accidentally hit enter before I typed where on that update, no tracking on who makes what change when)? Yes. Has a lot of benefits. I understand its a hard problem, I don't understand why no one (aside from perhaps django-admin which I find too obtuse) has tackled. I may rewrite existing code to golang (PHP now) and open source it at some point in the future.
