Description:
Workbencht simply won't honour the 'Use SSL' setting. It is working fine on 6.2.5.0 build 397 32bit OS X. 

I'm using Google Cloud SQL 2nd generation and installed cloud-sql-proxy (https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/sql-proxy) on my local machine.

With the proxy I'd simply connect to 127.0.0.1:3306 and this has been working fine, in NodeJs, Php and using the mysql command line client.

What doesn't work is MySQL Workbench. Even if 'Use SSL' ist set to 'No', testing the connection will always fail with: 'SSL connection error: socket layer receive error'

How to repeat:
- Install cloud-sql-proxy (https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/sql-proxy) and connect to cloud a cloud instance using TCP

- Set Workbench connection to 127:0:0:3306 and set 'Use SSL' to 'No'

- Test Connection
