No you are not. You can write your own scripts to manage your mysql 
database.

My experience however is that most users are perfectly happy with 
phpmyadmin to handle everything except dump and batch inserts. The only 
problem with the latter is that for large databases they tend to suffer 
HTTP timeouts.
