I actually started working on just such a shim yesterday. The idea is to represent all major cloud storage through a single simple frontend API. You have to implement each provider's OAuth flow, but once you have the files it's pretty much the same.
Dropbox, Google, and my own protocol[0] will come first, but Solid is planned eventually.
What I've learned so far:
* Google is extremely draconian unless you use their JavaScript picker. To really integrate nicely you would have to spend at least $15000-$75000 getting your app audited by a 3rd party.
* Dropbox picker integration is very easy and slick.
