It would be useful for the following to happen.

Scenario.

- Have two connections to different database servers
- Have two sql editors open, one for each server

Currently, version 3.5.0.v2 does not show enough information in the sql editor titles. It says

"SQL Editor (0).sql"

and

"SQL Editor (1).sql"

It is easy to make a mistake by typing a SQL Statement in the wrong window. Maye the names should say

"SQL Editor (0).DBServer1.sql"

and

"SQL Editor (0).DBServer2.sql"

Having the number increment based on the server.

Also, it would be nice to have the Editors and Database Structure selections switch automatically when you select a certain database servers file.

    1) Displaying the alias (connection) name in the editors title tab is a good idea.
    2) Numbering the file per alias is not so good. One can change the alias for a opened editor with the connection selection box in the editors top. So duplicate names may occure or the numbering is not correct.
    I prefer to let the numbering as is and add the alias in the title
    3) Linking the editor with the Database Structure (if opended) seems to be a good idea too.

    New preference to show session name in SQL editor title too was released with 3.5.0_RC8
