If pgAdmin is acceptable, you might want to try SQL Workbench/J: http://www.sql-workbench.net

It will allow to run inserts on anything that you can select from and it will prompt the user for the PK columns in
casenone could be identified in the database (such as when updating the result of a select based on a view or
retrievingdata from a table without a PK). The selection of the PK columns can be saved (locally) to avoid further
prompting
