Personally I think it looks very cluttered. There's way too much on the
screen at once imho.

Well, I agree with Justin's comments (see his message) but it's not really
relevant to pgAdmin is it? I know cross platform is something we discussed
before I really started on pgAdmin II, but at the time none of us were
expert enough in C/C++/Java/Whatever which is why we decided to stick with
VB if you remember. I'm not sure that ~30,000 lines of (RC1 quality) code
into the project is really a good time to think about changing :-)

Otoh, were you aware that pgAdmin II will run under Wine on Linux (and
presumably anything else that Wine runs on)?

Regards, Dave.
