Description:
In the SQL IDE, when I add or remove an object or rename it I don't see this reflected in the UI. I could use the context menu to manually refresh the UI but that quickly becomes annoying when I have to do this frequently.

How to repeat:
Open the SQL IDE and use the overview page to add a table. Once finished you don't see anywhere that you just added it.

Suggested fix:
Automatically refresh those parts of the UI (and only those) which have to reflect the change.

Bug #49282 describes a side effect of this one here.

Added incremental update of physical overview & schema tree.
Windows version suffers from lack of support of incremental node updates by 3rd party tree control which schema tree is based on, but this should go as separate bug, which is described here: bug #50424.

fix confirmed on osx and linux. for this to work in windows as well there are additional changes needed, so we opened another report especially for that. Bug #50424.
this fix will be include in 5.2.13

An entry has been added to the 5.2.13 changelog:

In the SQL Editor, if an object was created or renamed, that change was not reflected in the user interface. This change fixes the problem for Linux and Mac OS X. See also Bug#50424 for the Windows platform.
