If you want to try out something new (and possibly buggy), take a look at
this:

You can arrange your layout and save it and more, all of this through a web
interface, and the data is saved in plain XML... quite amazing.
I've got it working with Oracle, but I couldn't do schema import from
Postgres, it hangs for some reason.

The author says it's a Postgres JDBC bug, looks like the
java.sql.DatabaseMetaData#getCrossReference(String primaryCatalog, String
primarySchema, String primaryTable, String foreignCatalog, String
foreignSchema, String foreignTable) method hangs in any of the following
situations:
a) primaryTable is null;
b) foreignTable is null;
c) primaryTable == foreignTable;
The author sais these inputs are valid according to the JDBC spec.

Cheers,
Csaba.

le si foreignTable acceeasi valoare ( ca si cum ai vrea sa vezi daca o
tabela se autoreferentiaza ).

Yes, I spoke to them about it and they said it was planned for a future
version, but they did not know which future version!!
