Actually, I think we've come to what is probably a reasonable middle
ground.  For secure files, we have a solution: I/O modules with a
firewall trigger.  For query-accessible data, you can still provide I/O
modules and a firewall trigger for updates, and then grant read access
via profiles.  These can be added as supplemental group profiles on the
users that need the access.

And I'll even go so far as to say that basic referential integrity rules
can still be implemented via the database, provided it is commented in
the I/O module as well (you should probably have a program to create the
requisite relationships as needed).
