Yes, and we should definitely find ways to support projects like the WP 1.0 assessment DB in Labs. The feature set of the Labs DB replication isn't final, and it's likely going to be iterative. We do recognize the tremendous effort that's gone into some of these tools, and the value they represent. We'll host an IRC meeting soon that we'll broadcast to toolserver-l@ as well to allow for more discussion of requirements for tool labs (the phase of the labs project dedicated to supporting tools development) and to answer questions about how folks can use Labs today. In the meantime, don't hesitate to join #wikimedia-labs on irc.freenode.net as well.
