Bug #25868	There is no method to Refresh User List in User Administration

Description:
Under User Administration option, the list of User Accounts appears to only be read once, and is never refreshed. 

If I add or delete a user in an external app, such as MySQL Query Browser, that change will not be reflected in the User Accounts list.

How to repeat:
Launch MySQL Administrator, and login as root.
Click on User Administration.

Leav MySQL Administrator, then Launch MySQL client
  $ mysql -u root -p 
  $ create user TestUser;
  $ exit;

Switch the task back to MySQL Administrator.

The list of User Accounts will not show TestUser, nor is there any way to refresh the list.

Suggested fix:
The Catalogs option accomodates a similar problem for the list of schemas by allowing right-click within the schemata panel which then displays a "Refresh Schemata" selection. 

Add similar functionality for the User Accounts list for the User Administration option.

This is the way it works in MySQL Administrator for Windows, and apparently for Mac as well now, as was implemented for bug 23787:

edit typo in title

Windows and Mac version have this functionality: severity was changed.

Please, try to repeat with a newer version, 1.2.10 (from GUI Tools 5.0-r10), and inform about the results.

Behavior persists in MySQL Administrator v1.2.10 (Linux).
