unless i'm way off base the next version should be 2.0 which is going to be a 
total rewrite.

in 2.0, most of the stuff you're asking for should be available

this can probably be accomplished by applying a stylesheet to an XMI file - or 
you could write a code generator. SoDA really, really sucked - at least the 
last time i used it.

its in progress - probably about 10% complete. there's alot of work to be 
done.

and yes. we've planned (to a certain extent) for a database backend. actually, 
i think i've got it basically figured out.
