Extra brackets when viewing SQL.

Hi all,

In version 4.27 when I viewed my SQL (sql tab when highlighting an item).

For example:
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW asap.view_assignment
AS
SELECT pa.assign_id,
pa.proj_id,
pa.date_assigned,
pa.time_assigned,
au.user_name AS assigned_to,
pa.assigned_level,
pa.note,
eb.user_name AS assigned_by
FROM proj_assign pa
JOIN asap_users au ON au.user_uid = pa.assigned_to_user
LEFT JOIN asap_users eb ON eb.user_uid = pa.assigned_by_user;

In version 4.28 (and 4.29)
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW asap.view_assignment
AS
SELECT pa.assign_id,
pa.proj_id,
pa.date_assigned,
pa.time_assigned,
au.user_name AS assigned_to,
pa.assigned_level,
pa.note,
eb.user_name AS assigned_by
FROM ((proj_assign pa
JOIN asap_users au ON ((au.user_uid = pa.assigned_to_user)))
LEFT JOIN asap_users eb ON ((eb.user_uid = pa.assigned_by_user)));

I really don't like the extra brackets that are being placed around the
FROM and JOINs, and they show up as well in CASE statements within SELECT
and other sections as well. It gets really difficult when a complex
statement might involve 10 joins; and brackets are all over the place.
They are making my more complex queries difficult to read when I look at
them in the SQL tab.

Can I somehow disable this? It's a real pain in the butt. It was similar a
few versions ago; and then was corrected; but now it's back.

Joe.
