Probably. Given the demographics of a lot of the newbies is
Windows this likely needs to be a pointy-clicky sort of thing
if it's going to be widely useful.

Doing it in a smart way is likely hard, but even a very simple,
crude one would likely be helpful. Doing it as a standalone
GUI editor / Wizard wouldn't be too hard, but it sounds more
like something that should be integrated in pgadmin, perhaps?

Cheers,
Steve
