Description:
Mysql Query Browser crashes when using the identifier quote - character backtick (``'):
I know using spaces is silly but my clients give me tables to convert from Access. They usually
contain spaces and then plan to use Openoffice as an ODBC frontend to MySQL.
For the initial anaylsis they do not want the field names changed.

select `A01 Name` from users limit 10;

How to repeat:
select `A01 Name` from users limit 10; or something similar depending on whether you have a field with spaces

MySQL Query Browser doesn't crash for me, but produces an error:
"Unknown column 'xxxxx' in 'field list'"

Can you please confirm whether the bug persists in the latest release? I could not reproduce it in 1.1.3a neither in 1.1.6
