sounds interesting, but maybe also a bit complex to implement :) In my case, when an user account (webhosting) is created on one of our servers, everything is handled by "home made" scripts, creation of db and mysql user setup as well, and I don't really see how PMA could replace that. Let's see the other comments on the list :) Something that would still be nice to have IMHA is a web-based config.inc.php generator: an install.php3 which would ask a few questions (type of auth, type of server: unix->socket, nt->tcp, etc.) and then display the corresponding configuration. Could then simply be cut'n'pasted by the user (or directely saved if the chmod value is 0777, but maybe not so good...). Target "market": PMA newcommers, because the doc is maybe not yet really "newbie friendly" :) There are other projects using such an web-based installer: for example IMP or phpMyEdit if I recall correctely.
