Description:
Allow workbench timeouts (particularly the read timeout) to be configurable, instead of the current (as of 5.2) hard-coded values.

I'm trying to add a column to a large table (containing 24 million rows), and the operation times out after 600 seconds.  I also need to run several queries that take about 7 minutes to complete.  

Without configurable timeouts (or at least the ability to make the timeout unlimited), this tool is crippled for those types of operations.

How to repeat:
Use Workbench to run a query that takes more that 600 seconds to complete.  This may require a sufficiently large database...  my table has 24,000,000 rows.

Could you please try new Workbench version 5.2.47?
Try to configure Server Admin( "Options file"-"Networking"-"Timeout Settings" Section).

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.
