Description:
When executing a SELECT-Query, the MySQL Query Browser displays an empty cell if the cell's value contains a German Umlaut (ä, ö, ü).

How to repeat:
Insert a row into the table "foo" with "bar" having the value "aeiou"
INSERT INTO test.foo (bar) VALUES("aeiou");

Insert another row into the table "foo" with "bar" = "äöü"
INSERT INTO test.foo (bar) VALUES("äöü");

Fetch the values
SELECT * FROM test.foo;

MySQL Query Browser displays both rows, but the value of the second one is not displayed. phpMyAdmin has no problems with that...

However, if you use that query:
SELECT SUBSTRING(bar, 1, 127) FROM test.foo;
the cell is displayed correctly.
