Hi,
We want a small SQL page with querybox and bookmark, because some people don't have to see the structure when uploading queries or executing bookmarks.
However, some people want to see the whole structure while entering queries, not just the field names.
I was tempted to suggest them to open a second browser window ... but this might be not the best solution.
What about adding the whole contents of the SQL page, on the Structure page, after "propose table structure"?

I thought about that too. What about letting the user open a small query window via JS by clicking on a link in the left frame? This would allow him to use the query box from anywhere. I'll build a patch tomorrow.

Alexander,
I'm not sure that the left frame would be a good place to add a link besides every table, we don't have much room there.
And I'm not sure that this is where users would be looking for a query box. The thing that they see quickly is that the query box is not on the structure page.
