Description:
When creating a VIEW using the WB SQL Editor wizard, there is a "comments" tab, where presumably one can enter comments.  However, there is no mechanism to actually persist such comments, and these comments are not part of the resulting DDL script.  So why is it there?

How to repeat:
Create a VIEW.

Suggested fix:
Remove "comments" tab.

Removed the Comment (and privileges) tab from the View editor for live object in Mac. Windows and Linux pending.
