Hey Angus, sorry for the trouble and confusion. Documentation often does not keep track with the changes (not only for WB), so it'll take a while since this is all updated, especially for a new major version.

Your problem stems from the fact that there was an "Edit Table Data" link on the home screen that is no longer there (since it is only a part of all the SQL work you can do). To edit table data open a connection to your server and then run a "SELECT * FROM <yourtable>" which will return it's content and present it in a socalled result set grid. Provided your table has a primary key you can directly edit values in that grid and press "Apply" to send your changes back to the server.

Here's a screenshot showing how that looks like: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=58820.
