Description:
The UI is too lacking. User types should be above tables in the Physical Schemata page, as they need to be defined first.

The side-panel should present a pop-up UI for the flags on a field.

Once a UDT is added to a design it should appear in the DataType column's pop-up, in the TOP part of the list. They do not currently.

It would be nice to be able to import UDT's (as well as all other objects) from other workbench files, both en masse and selectively. 

How to repeat:
I entered a name for a UDT ('clienName', varchar(30)) and then the flags field activated but had no UI. How may I supposed to know what syntax for "required" or "identity" is applicable?

A full-features UDT editor has been added to WB 5.1 beta. This feature will not be backported to 5.0
