Hello!

Just wanted to bump this back up again. We're about to submit a patch with
these changes:

- Functionally making the result grid at functional parity with pgAdmin3
- Drag and select a subset of the cells
- select columns as well as rows
- use shift+arrow and shift+cmd+arrow keys to change the selected area
- add cmd+c copy, cmd+a select all

We'd like to include the column headers in what is copied but aren't sure
of if/when the column headers would be unwanted by users

From a design perspective

- Removing the checkboxes and making the entire header work to highlight
- making the header for the query results dark grey (using the gray that
is used for the toolbar menu)
- Make the selected cell blue and text white so that what is selected
pops and is clear.
- differentiating header text so that field name is bold and datatype
smaller text and not bold

Which will end up looking like this:
