Navicat for MySQL provides Manage Users to add, delete
users, and edit global user privileges, and grant privileges
on the selected databases, tables and fields.
The tree view on the left-hand side displays all the user/host
combinations that exist in the user table. The tree
view provides a drill down into the db, tables_priv
and column_priv tables.
