Isn't phpPgAdmin yet another tool of this type? I haven't tried it myself,
(no need, myself being the only user...) but the web page
(http://www.greatbridge.org/project/phppgadmin/projdisplay.php) says:

    Features include: 

    * create and drop databases 
    * create, copy, drop and alter
      tables/views/sequences/functions/indicies/triggers 
    * edit and add fields (to the extent Postgres allows) 
    * execute any SQL-statement, even batch-queries 
    * manage primary and unique keys 
    * create and read dumps of tables 
    * administer one single database 
    * administer multiple servers 
    * administer postgres users and groups
