This features are really easy to implement, it's a
small part of for example IBAccess
http://www.ibaccess.org

Note also IBConsole can be used, because it was
released under IPL license and works in Windows and
Linux.

Anyway a pure C++ Gui application can provide more
portability and smaller size, but I don't know how
much time requires to program it.

I find interesting for the beginner this features:
- Create/Delete Databases
- Backup/Restore
- Create/Delete users
- Execute SQL sentences
