Description:
Every day at work, I open hundreds of SQL tabs for new queries, and every time I exit, it prompts me to save every single one, I have to just kill the task, because I'm not going to sit there and destroy my mouse spamming the "don't save" button. In prior versions, there was a "No to all" option. Bring it back.

How to repeat:
1. Open 100 SQL tabs and put something in each tab
2. Exit workbench

Forgot to mention, there also used to be hotkeys for the buttons themselves, such as N for no, and holding N makes them all go instantly, so that could be an option too.

Thanks so much, Workbench is the best!

Thank you for the bug report.

This bug report was merged with MySQL Bug #66541. The MySQL Workbench 5.2.45 changelog entry reads as:

A new "General", "SQL Editor" option was added. Enabling "Create new tabs
as Query tabs instead of File" (disabled by default) causes new SQL Editor
tabs to default as Query tabs instead of SQL File tabs. File tabs include
additional options, and prompt to be saved when the tab closed.

Also, this new option has been documented.
