Description:
MySQL Workbench allows users to start MySQL Workbench with an optional argument of a .SQL script file or WB model file.  However, WB does not associate itself with these file extensions on Windows.  It would be convenient for users to be able to double-click on a .SQL file and have it opened in WB.

How to repeat:
* Install WB on Windows
* Note that .SQL files cannot be double-clicked to open in WB.

Suggested fix:
Associate WB with .SQL and .MWB file extensions on Windows.

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.3.6 release, and here's the changelog entry:

On Windows, the MySQL Workbench application is now associated to files with
the .sql extension.

Thank you for the bug report.
