Today I have a link to a new datastore viewer in my admin console. The UI is cleaner and looks very promising. GQL is gone (good riddance) and replaced with dropdown menus for filters and clickable headers to replace "ORDER BY". Very nice! There are many new features in the entity viewer: indexing can be adjusted, new properties can be added, and the types of existing properties (except text, blob, and list) can be adjusted to other types (not just null). Text, list, and blob properties still cannot be edited at all (I was really hoping that would be possible). There is also something of a regression: it does not seem to be possible to bookmark a query or a sort order. Bookmarking and linking to queries is something I really rely on in the old datastore viewer.
