Hello,

I don't usually use the builder, but sometimes it is convenient for long 
table/column names having queries. I'd like to propose some improvements 
to it:
1. Why not join the selected tables if they are related over foreign 
key? Usually well designed database uses FK to keep relations in order, 
so when you drop a new table to a query builder window there could be 
checked if the table can be linked to the already used tables in builder.
2. I think, that  tables should be linked using join statement, not the 
where clause. That way we could have left, right and inner joins easily.

I think these 2 impovements would make the builder more usable :).

Thank you for the tool anyway. Great job :)
