Red Hat's RHDB group already did a fair amount of work on such a tool:
see Control Center available from http://sources.redhat.com/rhdb/

IIRC it's all in Java and thus at least theoretically portable to
Windows.

At the moment Red Hat is devoting no resources to it (and so I think
it's stuck in the 7.3 time frame) but I'd be very happy to see someone
else pick it up and work on it.
