You're right, but the UI is more than that. In the version coming in a few more weeks, there will be two more objects on the right side: a property box and another smaller spreadsheet. The smaller spreadsheet is the editor of the current cell. Ctrl-click on any cell and it will zoom in (make that smaller spreadsheet the main one), and the query goes fromm, say, Person to Person.C3. Shift-click on any cell and it will do a filter/QBE for all rows with that value, etc.
The spreadsheet is the data editor, but it's much more powerful than what you currently see. Otherwise, you're right, you can create what you want; one app I want to do is a better version of Google Wave once the authorization module is plugged in.

You can refer to any data point, say Person column Age, row ID of 5 as: Person.Age5 or Person.C5 if that's the third column (it adds column names by default).
