         popupmenu in the editor part

aliasses
- MSSQL: fixed "sort buffer exceeded" problem with fetching tables/views for
some

  - when both tables didn't have a PK, the SC would say "PK name different"
  - DDL compare: missed in-between-spaces as differences
- Schema Migration:
  - constraints would be migrated twice when selected and using the option
    "include table constraints"
  - Migrating from engines that don't support domains to engines that do
    support domains raised lots of warnings "domain ignored" while this
    doesn't apply
  - some ADO drivers don't support indices, this would result in an
exception

ignoring
