Dear pgAdmin Hackers,

I notice in the latest version of pgAdmin (4.30) there is a ERD beta =
tool.=20

I wanted to suggest a feature which would be most helpful for database =
developers (not sure if you already working on this).

A lot of times I need to propose changes to the database and the =
database has 100s of table, which becomes very difficult to view =
altogether.

What I was looking to suggest is to connect to an existing database, but =
then be able to select existing =E2=80=98database table(s)=E2=80=99, =
with the =E2=80=98ERD tool=E2=80=99 then able to create all the =
links/attribute info in the view. So bit like =E2=80=98Generate ERD, but =
allow me to choose/restrict the tables=E2=80=99. This allows me to =
generate =E2=80=98different perspectives=E2=80=99 of my database and =
focus on the functionality they deliver in =
discussion/proposals/documentation.


Kinds Regards,

Hitesh Patel
PS: very excited with this feature.
