In fairness to Jean-Michel, he has spent hundreds of hours in the past
doing just that and far more for the pgAdmin users in the community -
I'm sure we can excuse him for asking for what many do think would be
a useful feature in the hopes that someone listening might just decide
to pick it up.

In the meantime though - have you tried rolling your own materialised
views with some triggers Jean-Michel? I have good results doing that
in the past.
