Would it be possible to write a SQL-plugin for Reiser4 with all
typicall SQL CONSTRAINTs (foreignkeys, triggers ...etc)?

Thus data integrity a SQL-database despite a filesystem provides
and a (Ms)WinFS like system could be realised.

After writing some data with a SQL-client, you could retrieve
a pieces of data through the filesystem interface, like:
# cat ../my_databasename/my_schema/my_table/my_friend/his_email

The features of "Reiser4 Atomic Filesystem" would enable
SQL-Transactions when inserting data through a SQL-client.
