I've installed and played with PgAdmin3, it's very nearly what I want
but has one major disadvantage and one minor disadvantage:-

    There's no direct way to the table data editing mode, one has to
    click through several menus loading the database etc.  There aren't
    command line options to take one directly to the editing grid.

    There's a stupid splash screen that you can't turn off that wastes a
    couple of seconds every time you start the program.
