Description:
Dragging a table field as an index may cause the administrator quit abnormally.

Create a talbe with many fields (in order to display the scrollbar when you open the table editor), then try to add an index with some fields of this table. Drag the table editor's scrollbar, choose some fields and drag them into the listbox of  index fields quickly. This maybe cause administrator quit abnormally.
 

How to repeat:
see the description

repeat this problem maybe very difficult, i cann't repeat it easily, but i meet the fantastic problem several times indeed.

I find that the problem seemed to has no relation with the listbox's scrollbar. 

The following steps maybe more helpful to repeat the problem:
Put the mouse focus on the field name in the listbox, then drag the field from table field listbox into the index listbox, repeat the operation several times. the administrator maybe quit abnormally.

Please try again with version 1.1.5, I cannot repeat the bug in that version.

It maybe quite difficult to repeat the bug, I didn't find it's regularity yet. But it exists indeed. I think it maybe related with the GTK controller. Perhaps it is a bug of GTK controllers.

I was not able to reproduce it.
