No, this would be quite simple, even though you would probably
need a week or so. In order to obtain something nice, you need to
1) Design a tree-based data format for BiBTeX files.
2) Write a converter from this format to/from BiBTeX.
3) Write a style file for displaying BiBTeX files.
4) Provide an interface for modifying entries, written in Scheme.
Of course, for a first try you can skip 4 and implement 3 in a very
rudimentary way.
