Localization strings might make sense. But graphics and audio? Seems a little cumbersome to have to re-blob the graphics resources into the database each time you make an update.

This would be more for read-only assets embedded into the executable itself (e.g. the little icons on buttons and stuff in a GUI). You probably shouldn't be updating these at runtime, and at compile-time I'd assume there would be tools doing it for you.
