Description:
Autocomplete window won't go away sometimes overlapping normal editor window making writing scripts impossible.

Screenshot is here: http://screencast.com/t/mZTrsQvMe

How to repeat:
1. Start typing sql queries in new SQL file window.
2. Close Workbench. 
3. Open Workbench again.
4. Continue typing using autocomplete.

one of windows (for me it was fields list) won't go away and stay there forever overlapping all other windows.

Suggested fix:
Make sure always close the autocomplete window on click somewhere else.

I think to repro you add alias for SQL select, type alias name, '.', and start typing it will create an autocomplete popup, then remove whatever you types, '.' and alias all together, wait for a second and start with alias again.

If I type '.' on 6.0.8 it freezes and then crash. Thank you for the bug report.

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.1.2 release, and here's the changelog entry:

On Mac OS X, the auto completion popup window remained open after
reopening MySQL Workbench.

Thank you for the bug report.
