You can use SSH tunneling to use pgAdmin from other sites without exposing 5432
itself to the internet.

That said, it would be really nice if pgAdmin could set up the tunnel itself,
which even MySQLWorkbench can do, rather than needing one to manually start an
SSH tunnel first for each usage. Much more user-friendly.
