Description:
when changing a multiline-option, like "replicate-do-db=" from multiple statements to completely remove the option, config editor gives a error msg hen trying to review and apply that change

How to repeat:
- insert the lines 

replicate-do-db = data1
replicate-do-db = data2

into your config file and launch WBs administration for that file.

- now head over to configuration -> replication and see the content "data1 | data2" in the "replicate these - databases" option.
- uncheck the checkbox next to the option
- click apply

as workaround, first remove all database names but one from the config option and apply that to the file (works). after that you can also remove the option completely and WB will apply the change (remove the line from cfg file)

fix confirmed. will be included in 5.2.14

An entry has been added to the 5.2.14 changelog:

If a multiline configuration option in the MySQL server configuration file was removed using the configuration editor of the Administrator tab, then MySQL Workbench generated an error.
