Re: F5 reloading page in 3.5

Hey, thanks for the suggestion. I had not considered that. I'm pretty old
but I might be able to retrain myself to F8.

I have few Chrome extensions installed. I will try to keep an eye on when
focus changes. I thought I was seeing a pattern of the F5 page reloading
after an erroneous query and then going back to the query pane to correct
the syntax, but it's not consistently reproducible.

Best regards,
Rich
