What about MySQLAdmin?

I'd discourage the use of PHPMyAdmin, given the many problems it causes.

Then there's Tora, but I don't know if that works with MySQL now.

It should be an application, not webbased... about MySQL CC: I've tried it
but do not really like it... that's why I am looking for an alternatives
which might not be one of the usual suspects.

I use MySQLAdmin and MySQL Query Browser. Both are free downloadables
from mysql.com. They do almost everything I'd want; I wish they had a
grid view for manual editing of data.

That's what I need it for... quick and easy filling tables with copy&paste.

Actually, MySQL Query Browser HAS a grid for manually editing the data.
Try this simple trick:
- open session in Query Browser
- select table by double-click or manually enter 'SELECT * FROM
the-table' and press 'Execute'; a grid with actual content of selected
table will be shown;
- press 'Edit' on the Status Bar;
From this moment data become editable. You can accept (apply) or drop
(discard) your changes by pressing other buttons on Status Bar.

Hi, I assume you're on windows, but just in case you also work on a mac,
you could take a look at CocoaMySQL, simple and straightforward..
