Description:
Since the SSH host I'm connecting to is a group of servers (each with a different server key) with the same DNS name I have to clear out the known_hosts file before connecting with Workbench until bug #75764 is fixed. I do this with an `rm ~/.ssh/known_hosts`.

After accepting the server key warning Workbench will hang indefinitely. the SQL editor is never displayed.

The workaround is to touch ~/.ssh/known_hosts right after I remove it.

How to repeat:
1. Remove known_hosts file from ~/.ssh/
2. Connect to host using SSH tunnel with Workbench
3. Accept Server Key at the prompt
4. Workbench hangs with a beachball of death.
