Description:
Working on a db connected by standard connection (TCP/IP) on a LAN machine with mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.41, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.1
if i  press Reconnect to DBMS the application will not respond anymore.

How to repeat:
Open connection.
Try to execute an unsafe delete and get the message that ask you to uncheck "safe Updates".
Uncheck the option using preference -> Sql Editor -> query editor -> "safe updates".
OK.
press the toolbar button reconnect to DBMS.

Suggested fix:
How i know?
Maybe immediatly show a wait panel and prevent the application to crash.

I have the same problem.

My workaround is to open Workbench and turn off "Safe Updates" and then Exit and start again. Then I can do some work...

Fixed as of 5.2.36:

+        The <guimenu>Reconnect to DBMS</guimenu> toolbar option would
+        not reconnect after unchecking the <literal>Safe
+        Updates</literal> preference. A workaround is to uncheck this
+        option, then restart &workbench;.
