I've been really wanting a system like this, but it's just so hard to get a new FOSS app off the ground, and I don't really want to maintain another app by myself, plus apps without a server are hard and I'd rather not self host anything.
It would be so cool to have some kind of generic manager for entity relations and metadata. You could scan a box, then hit a link type button like "Is near" or "Should contain" "Is checked out by", and it would keep it all in a SyncThing folder.
Maybe one of these days I'll find my old notes on building something like that, and try to make an MVP as a web app or something.
EPC Gen2 modules are cheap enough now that a consumer level $100 scanner to directly scan the items themselves, rather than a box code, seems completely possible, but it seems too time consuming unless you want to start a whole business around them.
