• DataPump now allows dragging by image instead of text only
• FetchAll flag on a per-database engine basis
• Using the Visual Query Builder in the View Editor adds text without overwriting previous text
• No more black rectangle (Windows XP) when connecting to a database
• Database Navigator: Count rows SQL didn't include owner name
