Eclipse is Awesome Again. (MySQL this time)

In half an hour I was able to download the Mysql JDBC database driver (login account to mysql required), put it on my Linux system, and then set up Data Source Explorer in Eclipse to connect to my test database.  You can drill down to tables and edit the data.  You can save or revert your edits at will!  Sweet!

I had to create a new MySQL user 2 of course using this:
Create User
Grant

I may need to get the SQL Exlporer plugin since I don't see a way to write and execute SQL with this, but it is an awesome start.
