Description:
The 'Split Tab' functionality in MySQL Query browser is missing in Workbench. 
I belive that this is an important functionality.

How to repeat:
In Query Browser you could split the tab and then do, for example:

In the first tab:
SELECT id_customer, name FROM customer;

In the splitted tab:
SELECT id_order, id_customer, date FROM orders WHERE id_customer = :id_customer

This enabled you to quicky see the orders for each selected customer in the first tab.

Suggested fix:
Add this functionality to Workbench

thank you for the report, we'll put that back in, but unfortunately this has to wait for the next major version (6.0)

Agreed that this was very useful. Thought I had missed it.  Been usinq Query Browser instead of Workbench a lot because this was missing.

Has this important "split tab" functionality, with the dynamic parameter ":" functionality, been added to Workbench 6.0? I still can't find it.
