Description:
When I use the scroll button on my mouse to go through all the connections in the "Connect to MySQL Server Instance", it will change the name of the instance showing to the name I highlighted. It looks like when there is not a button click, it doesn't refresh the data associated with the instance name, then it thinks I modified the name for a new name.

How to repeat:
- start MySQL Administrator or MySQL Query Browser
- create instance1 that connects to instance1.mysql.com
- create instance2 that connects to instance2.mysql.com
- close MySQL Administrator or MySQL Query Browser

- start MySQL Administrator or MySQL Query Browser
- click in the "Connection:" field (it should read "instance1" and the data below should be from instance1)
- scroll down with the mouse wheel (to choose "instance2"). Please note the data below will still point to instance1 data, although the name in the "Connection" field is "instance2".
- click on "Ok"

You will now be connected to instance1 instead of instance2 (as choosen). If you quit and start a new session, both names will now be "instance2", with different "Hostname".

Suggested fix:
Do not permit the wheel to scroll or do a refresh of data on a scroll or a click.
