Thanks David.

I have tried to run it in Desktop mode, but setting SERVER_MODE=False
does not make a difference:

(pgadmin4.1.6) 14:47:02 js@sitasie:~/pgadmin4.1.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pgadmin4$ python3.6 pgAdmin4.py
Starting pgAdmin 4. Please navigate to http://127.0.0.1:5050 in your browser.
 

Changing SERVER_MODE won't change what you see on the command line, but it certainly should change the root of the file browser, unless you've overridden the default config to prevent it.
