Description:
Would be helpful to see column basic column properties from the Query Browser, such as column type, length, etc. 

Currently you have to go to MySQL Administrator to do this.

How to repeat:
n/a

Suggested fix:
Could add a property view at the bottom of the sidebar (Where Syntax, Functions, etc are).  When a user clicks on a column it would display basic column information.

This is something I'm missing in QB too. Alternatively it could be done by adding "Properties" menu item when right-clicking on a column.

Many thanks for writing a feature request. The functionality of Query Browser will be implemented into Workbench. There you will have all this informations. So I will close this report now because we don't need it anymore. We won't fix this in existing Query Browser.
