Description:
The overview tab is helpful; however, it would be more useful if there were a textbox that could be typed into which filtered the list of objects (tables, views, routines) shown in the overview.

Because "Sequel Pro" has this feature, I generally keep both "Sequel Pro" and Workbench open. I would love to use only one program.

Suggested fix:
Add a textbox that could be typed into which filters the list of objects (tables, views, routines) shown in the overview.

as workaround, the find textbox in toolbar might be helpful.

@Johannes: The rollover text shows "Search text in script".

Fixed as of 5.2.36:

+        The Overview tab was removed, in favor of the new schema layout.
