Not right now.  It might be nice to add some 'Load from db' and
'Save to db' operations that would have gurus capable of defining
which db/table/user ... via gnome-db.

It would take a bit of extension in gnumeric to handle things like
keeping track fo those parameters between invocations, but that work
is definitely necessary.
