We have a Web Based application that is written in php and connects
to a MySQL Database. We want to develop a Mac client for this

app to a MySQL database another approach is needed. So what we
brainstormed was the following:
There are frameworks available for Cocoa that connect to MySQL, or
you can use the standard C interface. In googling, I found MySQL-
Cocoa (http://mysql-cocoa.sourceforge.net/), CocoaMySQL (http://
www.theonline.org/cocoamysql/), and MacSQL (http://www.rtlabs.com/
fwork/). And the C interface to MySQL works just the same on the Mac
as it does on any other Unixlike.
None of these frameworks use Core Data, but they're most likely a lot
simpler than the approach you propose and a lot closer to the usage
of the database you're probably doing in PHP.
