Try DBDesigner4[1], MySQL based their workbench from DBDesigner. However,
it won't allow you to connect to MySQL5 and sync your changes, but hey,
you're looking for a graphical designer - and this tool is great for
designing your DBs.
You can install from source and tweak it a bit or you can install the
win32 binary and let it run via wine (which works really well).
