Description:
When reverse engineering a database, the schema is not selected automatically even if you specify a default schema in the dialog box.

How to repeat:
 - Start MySQL
 - New model
 - Reverse engineer
 - Enter details, including 'default schema'
 - Proceed
 - When the list of databases/schema appear, the previously specified schema is not pre-selected (arguably, this screen should not appear at all)

Suggested fix:
Pre-select the default schema on the 'Select the Schemata to Reverse Engineer' step of the popup dialog.

It is by design that default schema is not taken into account for reverse-engineering or syncronization. Anyway, this sounds like a reasonable feature request to consider.

right, we'd remove he field in the wizards/dialogs where its not used

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 5.2.46 release, and here's the changelog entry:

 The "Default Schema" setting was ignored by the "Reverse Engineer
 Database" wizard.

Thank you for the bug report.
