Description:

when ever I forward engineer the database in version 6.3.4
I get column names like:

  `email` VARCHAR(90) NOT NULL COMMENT '', 

in version 6.3.3. I got:
  `email` VARCHAR(90) NOT NULL, 

please remove those empty comments

How to repeat:
forward engineer

## On Win7
WB 6.3.4 (In the Review the SQL code to be executed window)
-- -----------------------------------------------------
-- Table `mydb`.`Bug77400`
-- -----------------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `mydb`.`Bug77400` (
  `idBug77400` INT NOT NULL COMMENT '',
  `Bug77400col` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL COMMENT '',
  PRIMARY KEY (`idBug77400`)  COMMENT '')
ENGINE = InnoDB;

WB 6.3.3 (In the Review the SQL code to be executed window)

-- -----------------------------------------------------
-- Table `mydb`.`Bug77400`
-- -----------------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `mydb`.`Bug77400` (
  `idBug77400` INT NOT NULL,
  `Bug77400col` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`idBug77400`))
ENGINE = InnoDB;

But, in both the cases on server it is stored as:

ushastry@myhostname [mydb]> show create table Bug77400\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
       Table: Bug77400
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `Bug77400` (
  `idBug77400` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `Bug77400col` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`idBug77400`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.3.5 release, and here's the changelog entry:

Forward Engineering would sometimes append "COMMENT ''" to column
definitions.

Thank you for the bug report.
