toextend the pgadmin interface (which the users are already familiar with) to provide value added domain specific
functionality(custom validation, visualization on top of database functionality) instead of writing a separate GUI
application.The idea is to extend the object browser to new nodes corresponding to domain specific entities/groups
(modeledas one or more tables/types in the database) and providing custom viewer/editor forms for them.  I looked at
thesource and it has some documentation on adding custom forms. Is this approach recommended? How would it work with
newversions?

I've never heard of anyone doing this. I'm not sure it is the best way
though. I would prefer having a separate tool for corporate objects, but
this is just my point of view.

Anyways, if you still want to add this to your version of pgAdmin, it
should be quite easy to do.
