Re: "Microsoft Access" for RDF?

Graham Klyne's Annalist is perhaps not quite what you are thinking of
(I don't think it can connect to an arbitrary SPARQL endpoint), but I
would consider it as falling under a similar category, as you have a
user interface to define record types and forms, browse and edit
records, with views defined for different record types. Under the
surface it is however all RDF and REST - so you are making a schema by
stealth.
