Reminds (now depricated) WMIC shell on Windows. It also structured all system management data in tables that could be queried in SQL fashion. But there's more, tables could also had custom commands integrated to execute on elements of the table, like in the Processes table you had process management actions like kill, etc. A lot of the system management could have been done in WMIC shell alone without any external program. Now Windows management moved to Powershell bloatware.

The fundamental problem of change in IT is that so much work is already done it can be a major headache to recreate it anew. That's why there are still COBOL systems in production use. For example for this shell to become worth it you'd basically need to rewrite a lot of user programs to give out data in the new format, then rewrite your scripts. Is it worth it? If you already have systems established, probably not. Starting fresh, maybe, if you have free time for that.

@CyberGizmo BTW, talking about 'nutshells', you have a naming mistake on the first presentation slide, me thinks. ;)
