PyQt provides you with what you want. It includes SQL classes that 
support ODBC3, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and data aware GUI widgets 
like QDataTable, QDataBrowser and QDataView.

You can use Qt Designer to build your forms and use the pyuic utility to 
generate the Python code that implements those forms.

PyQt includes an example application that allows you to connect to a 
database, view it's structure and contents and submit arbitrary queries 
- all in about 180 lines of handwritten Python.

PyQt is available from http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/pyqt/.
