Description:
A common paradigm in tabbed interfaces today is to open a new tab with a shortcut, instead going through some page or menu entry. A well established shortcut is Ctrl+T (Cmd+T on OS X).

How to repeat:
Start WB and open an SQL Editor instance. There is no way to open another one with the same characteristics as the one already opened other than going to the home screen and open from there.

Suggested fix:
Implement the shortcut.

MySQL Workbench has been changed to support creating a new tab in tabbed interfaces by using Ctrl+T on Windows and Cmd+T on Mac OS X.
