EditGrid

I really like the new features in the EditGrid, but I have a few feature
requests.  The first is just a convenience function, really.  It's a very
common idiom on Win32 to click a column header and get a sort on
that column.  Similar functionality would be nice in pgAdmin.  I realize
that it's not as powerful as the multi-column select that is available,
but it would be a nice complement to it.  The other feature is much
more important to me.  I often want to view records in very large
tables, but I don't want to wait a long time for the entire table to
load.  I usually don't want to see the entire table anyway.  What 
would be nice is if the EditGrid could detect that a table will show
more than 1000 rows, and automatically set a filter that shows the
first 1000 rows.  Then, if you really want to see the whole table, you
could go and erase the filter.  This way, I can look at a large table in
a reasonable amount of time without loading every record.
The main reason I like to use the EditGrid to view data is because it
shows empty strings as '', while the SQL viewer does not.  With the
SQL viewer I cannot see if a blank field is null or empty.  So alternatively,
if the SQL viewer displayed empty strings as '', that would work for me.
