If I leave SQLyog alone for a while a timeout occurs causing me to wait until the program can recover from figuring out there was a timeout. I find this very annoying. Can there be a way that SQLyog can stay 'connected' to the server w/o much overhead? It would be nice, same goes for the SSH tunneling. It also times out and I am forced to reconnect after waiting up to 30 seconds for the program to catch the timeout.
