I don't see why phpPgAdmin would avoid using the views, unless some 
serious randomness happened that we had to support.  The unimaginable 
craziness of currently trying to support multiple versions of postgresql 
is pretty bad, and the information_schema is next to useless for these 
things since it doesn't have PostgreSQL specific things in it.
