Description:
When executing a query in the Query Pane of a SQL Editor tab, the cursor re-appears in its last position as soon as the query starts running.

If you then run then query again, the cursor disappears, requiring you to click back in the Query Pane to continue

How to repeat:
Open a new SQL Editor Tab and type an arbitrary query e.g:

SELECT 1=1;

Execute the query (ctrl-Return; Execute buttons)

The cursor should re-appear.

Now execute the query again.

This time the cursor disapears.

Click back in the SQL editor, and execute the query.

Again, the cursor disappears.

Suggested fix:
have the cursor re-appear after every query

This is not reproducible with WB 6.1.7/6.1.6, but WB 6.2.2/3 are affected..

Works properly for me in 6.3.4.0 on Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP 1, 64-bit.

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.3.7 release, and here's the changelog entry:

The cursor could seemingly disappear after executing a query, as it could
remain at its last position when the query started to execute.

Thank you for the bug report.
