I think that's a great idea!  Many people have started projects to create
spreadsheets for Sugar, but none have finished.

Some pointers:

Three classes of approaches have been attempted, roughly:

1. Sugarize Gnumeric
2. Socialcalc
3. A python-based spreadsheet using numpy, matplotlib, pylab, etc.
