Looks very promising.  I checked the create table code and the type
guessing is a little basic (always text) and done on a row basis.
Since you are using JSON and will therefore load the entire set of
posted data before you process it, you might want to guess the type
based on all the data posted.

I would also like to be able to nest tables (maybe I've spent too long
with mongo ;) ), so that I could encapsulate projects in a single URL
scheme.  FWIW the difficulty in doing this with flask decorators is
what made me use something other than flask when I made something
similar.

Obviously security is going to be a concern when you are executing sql
input.  Have you given any thought to this?  Esp when you would want
to be embedding this in other javascript apps.

But all in all, looking impressive.
