Ooo, just for the posterity of this thread, I found a reasonably good 
tool, from MySQL AB.  It's called the mysql-query-browser.  It provides 
a reasonably straightforward interface, and most importantly allows 
batching of "UPDATE"s in the form of editing a table of results, much as 
one would manipulate a spreadsheet, which is exactly the sort of 
function I was looking for.

Thanks for all input!
