You would need to provide some short and simple 'viewer' code which can be used to extract a 'Quick View' or 'Thumbnail' file from the database, so the GUI Shell can show it to the user when they're browsing files. Generally speaking you never modify just a single file in such a document because you need to modify the thumbnail file when any change is made to the content. Given that SQLite code is public anyway, and this would need no writing and no locking, it wouldn't be hard, but it would need to be done. Also I doubt your compression figures are accurate for big files. A typical .docx document on my computer is 32K long but expands to 87K unzipped plus 576K for the 'Quick View' file. But I don't have to time to look into this in detail.
