Notes:
MySql Procedural-SQL is highlighted with the Oracle highlighter
Identifier resolver still experiences issues and may report invalid references even though they are valid. A major redesign of the identifier-resolver is planned already.

...
- Connections configurable in scope of project or module
- Persistent mapping between connection/schema and sql scripts
- Connection pooling for concurrent database access and dedicated connectivity (managed internally)
- Silent connectivity restoring in case of database linkage breaks (e.g. idle session timeouts, administrative session kills)
- Virtual connections for deciding the .sql dialect of the mapped file (no real database behind)

...
- Tree-wise visualization of database connections and hierarchical objects structure
- Contextual popup menu with supported operations on each database entity (e.g. compile, execute, refresh lists)
- Several embedded navigation capabilities via context menu (e.g. from column to its constraints, from synonym to underlying object)
- Accessors for database object editor and method execution operation
- Navigation history and speed search capabilities
- Highlighting of invalid objects, accessors for multiple-compile operation (identify invalid objects and fire compilation operation on them) **
- DDL extraction to editor or to clipboard (deprecated feature - see ddl file creation in code-editor section) **
- Lazy loading of database objects (objects are loaded only on demand from the database to save system resources)
- Intelligent background loading strategy to ensure minimal waiting times for developer

...
- Editor for database functions, procedures, packages, types and triggers
- Qualified editor for database views (advanced editing capabilities like code completion, folding, navigation, error highlighting)
- Show changes facility (diff visualization for local changes and changes against database)
- Basic team coding support to prevent blind overwriting on concurrent editing (if the edited object was changed by a third party since it was last saved, developer will be prompted to merge the changes)
- Support for creation of DDL files for database objects
- DDL file mapping - locating and aggregating project .ddl files with the database objects being edited (ddl files are automatically updated when object is edited)
- Firing compile operation after updating changes to database **
- Compiler error messages in the execution console with navigation to code (to exact row and column position) **
- Navigable structure projection in the "Structure" tool window
- Identifier highlighting (Editor settings: "Highlight usages of element at caret")
Note: Version conflict editors are not highlighted. Will be fixed in future releases.

...
- Advanced cell editors for several data types (data choosers, calendar, large text editor)
- Input validation and error highlighting (erroneous inputs are leniently notified by a lightweight error pop-up)
- Data sorting (click on column header will switch the sorting order)
- Gutter highlighting for unsaved changes (inserted, changed or removed entries are emphasized in the editor gutter)
- Data export to file or to clipboard in several formats (sql insert statements, .xls, .csv)
- Flexible data filtering capabilities (simple - list of conditions joined with AND or OR; custom - sql editor for freestyle "where" condition)
- Quick filter suggestions (e.g. "filter by column value", "filter by clipboard value")
- Transaction awareness when changing data (commit and rollback controls are being enabled for the corresponding connection)
- Navigable structure projection in the "Structure" tool window
- Smart editing (cell becomes editable right after being selected to skip annoying "double-click to edit")
- Editing lock (for comfortable data browsing)
- CLOB editor with configurable highlighting (supports all file types supplied by IntelliJ)**
- Record editor

...
- Execution of sql statements can be fired directly from the editor gutter against the database mapped to the editor
- Sticky linkage between statements in editor and execution result (navigation from the editor to the result and backwards is ensured even if the file is being edited)
- Sortable query results in tabular form
- Export of query results to file or to clipboard in several formats (sql insert statements, .xls, .csv)
- Message window for failed statement executions
- Executed statement preview window (useful when the underlying statement has been changed in editor)
- Transaction awareness on execution of data manipulation statements (commit and rollback controls are being enabled for the corresponding connection)
- Compiler engine for database program objects (functions, procedures, triggers, packages, types) **
- Method execution engine for functions and stored procedures
- Method execution history (execution arguments are persisted and can be reviewed/reused/deleted at any time)
Note: Configuration of execution processes is still pending.

PL/SQL Debugger **
Full-fledged debugger for PL/SQL programs (procedures, functions, packages) based on the Oracle DBMS_DEBUG functionality.
...
Notes:
No JDWP debugging supported yet
Only execution of functions and stored procedures can be debugged for the time being (including package executable elements).
Execution and debugging for file based PL/SQL code (PL/SQL scripts) is planned.
** Oracle specific feature
