Description:
I was waiting a long time for the saved session bug to be fixed, and it finally was in version 6.0.8. Downloaded and installed it, now I cannot use MySQL Workbench with my local MySQL DB instance (server is version 5.1.66).

I will attach the log file after submitting this bug.

How to repeat:
1. Open MySQL Workbench.
2. Click on connection for localhost DB instance.
3. Hangs with partially drawn screen.

I have since discovered that it will eventually recover from the hang, but it takes several minutes. Eventually a dialog box comes up that says:

Could not acquire management access for administration

Exception: Unsupported administration target type: ('windows', 'linux', 'wmi')

with buttons beneath the message that say "Settings..." and "Cancel".
