Well, the short version is CoreData & SQLLite will not help you in any way with MySQL. As to using another framework or rolling your own, that largely depends upon your needs. Obviously the GPL is not an issue if you are going against MySQL anyways, so I would probably look hard at not reinventing the wheel and using a preexisting framework.
