Please put it back with an option to switch it off if you dislike it so
much. I hate running non-queries and not seeing that they have obviously
completed.

It shows the history of what you've been doing and waht happened -
particularly useful when fine tuning queries etc. The current log window
has never shown more than 3 lines to me, and that could easily be
reduced without losing content. I would far rather see a rolling history
of what I've done and what the result was, than a couple of lines of
text that might just as well be in the status bar.

Again, please put it back, and add a 'verbose' output option for those
of us that want to see that sort of thing.
