I think onlookers are still completely mystified as to why you consider
this a useful activity.

pgadmin is nothing but a GUI.  Whatever can be done through it can be
done equally well through psql, or any other client software.  So if
you're looking for security against unwanted SQL commands, you're going
about it the wrong way (better to look at preventing logins of privileged
accounts, and/or use of SQL permissions to limit what can be done).
If your objective is something else, you haven't explained what that is.
