TODO item: columns of Views: show properties

I see in todo an item:
    columns of Views: show properties

and maybe I have a solution. I have written a "c" (backend) function that
can return the same structure as "pg_class" for any query, and that means
indirectly that it can return all columns definitions for view too. It is
important that it can tell for each column to which table it belongs.
Concerning pgAdmin already has some server-side functions, could this be a
solution ?

Regards !

No, server-side support functions are really only the very last solution
to consider. pgAdmin3 should run out-of-the-box as much as possible.
What has to be done is put all applicable table subitems under view also.

In that case I have no idea how to do it :-(
In server-side function I can use parser interface to obtain all column
definitions, have no idea how to do it on the client side.

Just as for tables.

If you're looking for some TODO item to complete, you could check if all
properties react properly (i.e. are read only, and menu items are
disabled) if a user has no superuser privilege. Knowing which objects
fail would help fixing it.

Calling property dialog on database for non-superuser crashes the application.
Anyone else seeing this ? I'm trying to figure out what is happening.

Regards !
