Hmmm ... it seems that CRUD has become synonymous with "forms that look like the database into which they write stuff", possibly because RoR and Django made "scaffolding" the admin interface so popular.

Of course everything that works with a database is CRUD because what else can you do with a database apart from create, retrieve, update and delete data?

I think that if you're doing your job right in interface design the structure of your database shouldn't be immediately apparent to the user. The database design process and the interface design process should be completely separate.
