This is a TODO (http://code.pgadmin.org/trac/ticket/340). Unless someone
is interested in working on a patch for this now (and has a great UI
idea), it won't be done for 1.16.

You can already to that by selecting the query you want to execute.
People ask that we add a new way to execute queries so that it executes
the query where your cursor is but it is really difficult to do (where
does your query start, and where does it stop? one possible answer would
be to execute the line, but I have various examples showing it doesn't
seem such a good idea).

1.15 has already some code to auto-refresh objects in the tree when you
click on them.

Well, pgadmin-support is a better place than asking me directly :)
(which is why I CC the list).

What if there's a semi colon in a comment, string, anonymous block or
stored procedure? We need a parser to deal with that, not just a
simple split on semi colons.

Agreed. It's really not a simple task.

Yes, someone else told us about this, and I find that a smart way to do
it. I guess that, if we ever happen to offer this, we'll have an option
to select between the old and new behaviour.

Anyway, this would be nice-to-have.

Hi,
I second the request.
I am not wxWidgets developer but I think there are to different UI solutions:
  • different tabs in output section like in SQL Workbench
  • different record sets like in MS (something like table of tables)
I think it could be configured in options which approach is preferred by user, because both has pros and cons

Regards,
Bartek

Hmmm, no, we'll go for one. I would prefer the former, but nothing yet
is really settled.
