Ha ha.  Great Freudian slip.

I would be a zillion times more interested in discussing on how to be 
able to view/manipulate gnucash data, live, on gnumeric.

I've vaguely thought about writing a GnomeVFS module that would
export live gnucash data as a tree of files, and then somehow
map this to gnumeric cells ... so that a change made in gnumeric
can then write out to GnomeVFS, where it's instantly mirrored in 
GnuCash, and v.v.
