*** Glom
With Glom you can design table definitions and the relationships between
them, plus arrange the fields on the screen. You can edit and search the
data in those tables, and specify field values in terms of other fields.
It's as easy as it should be.

New features in Glom 1.16, compared to Glom 1.14:
* Field Formatting: Related Choices: Add a Show All checkbox, so that
the list of choices can be restricted according to the relationship,
instead of just showing all values in the related table.
This allows the Choices to be used to narrow down a choice based on a
choice in another field.
* Developer menu: Added Export Backup and Restore Backup menu items.
These use PostgreSQL's pg_dump and pg_restore utilities, wrapping the
dump and .glom file up in a .tar.gz.
As well as allowing backups of data, this should make it easier to upgrade
the PostgreSQL version, which some distros do automatically when upgrading
to new major versions of Glom. This is possible because pg_restore can
work with the pg_dump output of an older PostgreSQL version.
