pgAdmin3 has not only the DDL browsing tool, but also a data
manipulation tool, doing pretty much what you describe (spreadsheet
like, in-place editing, result set size only limited by the backend).
It's functionality is quite basic at the moment, enhancements in
progress. There are plans for a supplementing data manipulation
application suite that allows for import/transformation/... stuff. And
we plan to include a scripting engine into pgAdmin3 (probably Python),
for easy add-on programming.
Regards,
Andreas
