I still consider SSH tunnel support to be very important, under the assumption
that running a DBMS general admin program on one's own computer that talks to
the server via SSH tunnel is more secure than running one on a web server where
it would present a larger attack surface on the DBMS from the public. I
wouldn't want to allow connections to Postgres directly from the public internet
either. -- Darren Duncan
