Description:
When attempting to apply privileges to a new user other than root, when "applying changes" the system returns an error message:

 "MySQL Administrator exception. Error while storing user info. The user might have been deleted. Please refresh user list."

Having refreshed user list, the system returns to the way it was. I cannot assign privileges to another user.

How to repeat:
Go to User Administration, appoint a new user, then try to assign global privileges to this new user.

I cannot believe this trivial functionality is still broken!!

Windows Vista, 64-bit

MySQL Administrator 1.2.17 (downloaded 10 minutes ago from main downloads page, 3 mirrors, supposed to be updated 2+ years ago)

Try to change schema privs for a user, upon save, get message:
"Error while storing the user information.  The user might have been deleted.  Please refresh the user list."

ridiculous!!!
