pgAdmin3 into our favorites desktops (Gnome, kde and so on) ?
I'm currently making some files to add to Debian packages so that
pgAdmin becomes available automatically in Gnome's menus after package
installation.

All you have to do is installing a file called pgadmin3 in /usr/lib/menu/pgadmin3 and launch update-menus in postinstall and your menu entry will be added to kde, gnome, wmaker and others...
The file looks like this :
?package(pgadmin3):needs="x11" section="Apps/Databases" \
title="pgAdmin3" command="pgadmin3" hints="Graphical client for PostgreSQL" \
icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/pgadmin3.xpm
As I can remember I've seen similar things in recent redhat distros, I did a quick search on redhat site and found some references to it for mdk :)
In spec file you can add such things:
%post
%{update_menus}%postun
%{clean_menus}You will find more detailed information concerning this at http://rpm.redhat.com/hintskinks/buildtree/mdk-rpm/
Can you have a try by hand on RPM based distros (it would be cool that suse does this too) and let me know if it works well ? Just try to copy pgadmin3 in /usr/lib/menu and launch update-menus.
If it is ok for all distros, it would be nice to have an unique file in CVS that we could add to linux and may be other unices packages.
We stay in touch.
Last but not least, do you have an icon (xpm, gif,...) ?
