FlameRobin has gone through a few 'variations' in it's development. And some
of us perhaps prefer some of the older approach to the newer windowing, but on
the whole what is currently provided works well. The fact that it does the
same in Linux as well as Windows does lead to a few other restrictions with
the operation of things, and I can transparently work in either.

If I was not so tied up with maintaining compatibility in other areas then I
would certainly be a little more active in helping improve FlameRobin ( backup
scheduler and data pump are on my wish list ) but at present there is no real
'one-stop' tool that does everything.

An alternate path if you want to simply manage tables of results may be via
eclipse and jaybird. There are a number of java based management tools.
