I think there must be some confusion about the spells (or I'm completely misunderstanding what you're saying), because the client & server don't handle spells differently based on the client like we do with other things (opcodes, spawn structs, player profile structs, etc).

That's the way it currently works (which is a pita, and why most, if not all servers, use either the straight Titanium spell file or slightly modified version), and I think that's why I'm confused about where you're coming from.
Here's the current flow of how the spells are loaded:
- main()
- LoadSPDat() called in main()
- FileLoadSPDat() called via a callback (extFileLoadSPDat) in LoadSPDat()
- Read from spells_us.txt as directed by FileLoadSPDat()
All I'm doing is changing the last step to this:
- main()
- LoadSPDat() called in main()
- FileLoadSPDat() called via a callback (extFileLoadSPDat) in LoadSPDat()
- Read from database as directed by FileLoadSPDat()
So instead of parsing through this:
Code:

we're iterating through this:

I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel, I'm just trying to make it easier to work with (especially in tools & other editors)
EDIT: The main reason I started towards this in the first place is that different utilities, including the PEQ editor, EQBrowser (Allakhazam clone), etc, usually have you source a trimmed copy of the spells file into the database anyways. However, they have a tendency to step over each others' toes, because some use fewer fields than others. This was to A) help alleviate the conflict, and B) make it easier to customize spell files, including tweaking the vanilla Titanium spell file (since we all know it's not perfect).
