Description:
In Workbench Server Administration, when you Manage Server Profiles and the list is still empty, adding a new one will not let you change the name.
Only when close the window and re-open it, you can change the name. Adding more instances, there is no problem

How to repeat:
I guess this needs a clean install, no instances defined yet
* Server Administration > Manage Server Profiles
* Add 'New' instance: you can't edit the name.
* Change other stuff, save, close the window
* Open 'Manage Server Profiles' again, now you change the name.

An entry was added to the 5.2.10 changelog:

In the Manage Server Instances dialog, if the Server Instances list pane was empty, then on creating a new Server Instance, it was not possible to change the instance's name. The instance had to be created, then the dialog closed. On reopening the dialog the instance could be renamed.
