Description:
There is a mouseover tooltip within the diagram view that appears when the mouse is left over a table column.

I think it would be helpful if the comments for that column (if they exist) were included within that tool-tip.

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
Currently the tool-tip displays:

* Key status
* Foreign key references (if applicable)
* Data type and data type flags (if applicable)

This has been fixed as of the soon-to-be-released Workbench 5.2.41, and 
here's the changelog entry:

The Diagram object tooltip now displays the column comments.
