Category:	MySQL Workbench: SQL Editor	Severity:	S4 (Feature request)
Version:	5.2.34 CE	OS:	Windows (XP Pro SP3)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
Query Browser has the convenient feature of displaying the cursor coordinates (line:position) in the lower left corner of the window. While the line number is obvious in both QB and Workbench, the cursor position on the line is not. This is a convenient feature for aligning indented code segments without having to move the cursor up and down within the query statement to ensure alignment.

How to repeat:
Open any version of Query Browser.
Open a query or SQL file ... or just begin typing.
Note the cursor coordinates in the lower left corner of the QB window.

Open Workbench.
Open an SQL file ... or just begin typing.
Note there are no cursor coordinates to assist in aligning indented code segments.

Suggested fix:
Display cursor coordinates in the Workbench SQL Editor window or query pane.

Thank you for the feature request.
