And exactly how is it "badly designed"? And what are the "plenty logic
errors"? And what issues do their developers "not know how to correct"?
I've always found them to be quite good at fixing bugs, for instance.

Sure I have. Many times. Quite easy to do, as a matter of fact. You
have total access to PhpMyAdmin's config files.
And yes, MySQL has more security than ftp access. Every decent RDB
does. Typically data in a database is much more important than the
contents of files. Files can be easily replaced; databases not so much.
Also, files don't normally contain userid's, passwords, credit card
numbers, and other personal information. Databases do.

They can if they set it up correctly. Maybe they need to read the
instructions. Every such error I've ever seen in the MySQL newsgroups
can be traced back to something documented in the manual.
And BTW, this has nothing to do with phpMyAdmin.

Sure. Set up the security properly. It works great. I've done it for
both local and remote hosts.
But this is not a PHP problem; nor is is a phpMyAdmin problem.
