Description:
Request for the ability to move tables between databases, specifically with a drag and drop motion, but Cut/Paste (especially multiple) would be feasible.

How to repeat:
From the Model Overview window:
* You cannot drag and drop a table to a new database.
* You cannot cut/paste to the new database.
* You cannot select multiple and copy/paste.

The workaround is to copy the table, paste it in the new database, then delete the original.  While feasible, it is time consuming.

Rationale:
This action can be performed from the database by using RENAME TABLE or ALTER TABLE very simply.  I suggest that it be equally simple in Workbench.

Suggested fix:
Code the necessary functionality to be able to drag and drop a table from one database to another.

Correction:  Cut/Paste between two databases does work eliminating the need to copy and delete.
