I found both phpPgAdmin and PgAdmin III superior to phpMyAdmin in many aspects. And there's always DBeaver to handle any relational database you can probably imagine.

Although I must say I've yet to see an SQL client that comes close to HeidiSQL (Windows only, MySQL+MSSQL only). (Edit: "MySQL only" was wrong.)

On Mac OS X, Sequel Pro is similar to HeidiSQL. I use it everyday and it's pretty incredible.

It's still pretty unstable, unfortunately and there are some weird issues: if the connection drops, you won't be able to retrieve your queries before reconnecting because of the reconnect dialog. And that's if you don't press on disconect and lose all the queries, because the tab will be closed. I'm currently trying to switch to MySql Workbench.

+1 for Sequel Pro. Quite the respectable client on OSX.

Note that HeidiSQL is not MySQL only, it also does MSSQL. I've yet to find a client as nice as HeidiSQL for my main db environment, Oracle. SQL Developer works, and has some great tools, but the UX is counter-intuitive and very slow.
