Description:
In Workbench Server Administration:

When opening an instance, checking the connections, closing the instance the connection will be not terminated.

How to repeat:
* Server Administration: open an instance
* Go to Connections, 'remember' the last connection ID
* Close the instance e.g. closing the tab 'Admin (instancename)'
* Open the same instance again
* Go back to connections, and see the old connection ID still there.

BTW, this is a bug coming from MBA, see bug #37123.

Suggested fix:
It seems that 'Connections' opens a new connection to execute a SHOW PROCESSLIST. Is this really needed?

fix confirmed. will be included in 5.2.12

An entry has been added to the 5.2.12 changelog:

The ID for a connection was displayed in the Connections tab of the Admin page, even after the corresponding administration session had been closed.
