Workbench: No Error Reported for Invalid Queries?

I am running MySql Workbench 5.2.40 on a clean ubuntu quantal install, using the ubuntu package version.

When I run a valid query, it works fine, e.g.:

select * from users;

At the bottom of the window in what I would call the 'Status Bar' it says 'Executing Query...' for a few seconds while the query runs, and then changes to 'Query Completed' and displays the results.

So far so good.

If I then change the query to something invalid, e.g. :

select * from invalid_table;

The status bar says 'Executing Query...' and stays that way. I cannot see the error message reported anywhere.

If I run the same query in a terminal I get:

mysql> select * from invalid_table;
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'mydb.invalid_table' doesn't exist

Surely the error message should show in workbench?

Am I missing something here?
