Description:
Viewing logs in WB, it is virtually impossible to view the entire query.  There's no way to copy anything, and the column width constrains longer queries.  The only workaround is to continually adjust the column width wider in a series of steps.

How to repeat:
Try to view long queries in the logs.

Suggested fix:
Provide a pop-up option, tool tip with full query, copy/paste.
Better yet, all three.

We should make it so that dbl-clicking the row or clicking a [View Selected] button pops up a window with the full contents of the row.

Please also ensure that the query or contents may be copied, whatever the final decision on solution is.

I've added a Copy Detail button that copies the contents of the detail/SQL field into the clipboard.

A 'change' entry has been added to the 5.2.16 changelog:

In the Logs tab of the Administrator it was not possible to view long queries, or copy their text. MySQL Workbench has been changed so that double-clicking on an entry in the Logs tab pops up a dialog with the complete text, and also provides a Copy Detail button to copy the text of the entry.
