Initial Comment:
I can't find if this has been suggested before, so
please forgive me if I missed something.  I've got
several users who decide it's not appropriate for them
to read the manuals for PostgreSQL if they are using
phpPgAdmin...which leads to a lot of unnecessary
support calls coming from people trying to create
tables and putting in bogus information for the row
properties.  For example, the latest (and most
frequent) one is people trying to make, as they call
it, a text field that is 500 chars long.  So, they
choose "text" as the field type, and put in 500 as the
size, which throws a SQL error for obvious reasons.  It
would rock if the page could check what values have
been entered to see if it matches the
requirements/constraints for that data type.  Thanks!
