      Let us see if you get any responses to your poll.

      But this is both correct and incorrect actually “.. the database drop-down list, which in reality is redundant when you have the object browser”. It is there for two reasons

      1) Historical reasons. (in this context your statement is correct).

      2) User may hide the Object Browser (from 'edit' menu or Ctrl+Shift+1) (in this context your statement is incorrect).

      True… perhaps the aggregation of my suggestion would be a database drop down that is part of the tab or tool-strip under the tab, and the object browser would limit itself to the child nodes that currently appear under the database name.

      Actually your request conflicts with another popular request: that there should be only one Object Browser for all open connections.

      Haha. Wow, I didn't realize I was about to single-handedly split the ticket with my vote. 😀

      I'm trying to see myself working this way, but just can't because of the current behavior of having all tabs in a connection be locked up while any one of them is executing. 🙁

      I'd just open another connection. Using Ctrl-Tab it's a breeze to switch between them–actually easier than switching between tabs, I think. Since under what you're proposing, those multiple queries couldn't be executing simultaneously anyway, presumably your work pattern isn't such that they'd be returning data simultaneously if put in separate connections (though they'd be able to).

      Are you limited to one connection by the server? Do you need them to share user variables? Or are you manually tunneling, so an additional connection is a hassle?

      You can have multiple connections to the same server.  Each connection will create its own 'session' and as user variables have a session-scope they are not shared between connections. This does not have much to do with SQLyog really – this is how user variables are implemented in the server.
