Another thing I've noticed is that, when adding columns, the "Is
primary key?" column is greyed out. Why not just make those
modifiable in that view rather than having to go into the details for
each column?
When there's something that hasn't been set up correctly, like adding
variables for a column, but not actually selecting a variable, the SQL
pane, correctly, doesn't show an output, but the error message,
"Please provide input for variable." isn't enough to identify what
needs checking. Could the relevant tab and field/row be
highlighted/coloured in red/bold? This is more general, so doesn't
just apply to the create table dialog.
