Description:
Workbench display column name, column type, not null constraint... with no extra space. It's not easy to read.

+---------------------------------+
| Name CHAR(20) nn                |
| Alias CHAR(20)                  |
| Age INT nn                      |
| Address CHAR(255)               |
+---------------------------------+

How to repeat:
always

Suggested fix:
column name, column type, some constraint on Table view, each item has fixed column size. It's more readable viewing.

For example, follow text ( with fixed size font )
+---------------------------------+
| Name             CHAR(20)  nn   |
| Alias            CHAR(20)       |
| Age              INT       nn   |
| Address          CHAR(255)      |
+---------------------------------+

Thank you for a reasonable feature request. Option to display columns information like this would be useful.

Many thanks for writing a feature request.

After long discussion we decided that we won't change this behaviour in foreseeable future.

Thank you for your interests in MySQL Workbench.
