Description

Hi, I'm really impressed by Postico so far! I'm wondering if it would be possible to add an option to make the row height in results scale automatically for results that contain multiple lines of text. My specific use case is for database introspection queries like `SHOW CREATE TABLE` in CockroachDB (pictured), but this would be helpful for any query that produces output that is multiple lines long.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First clarify the expected automatic row-sizing behavior and how it should apply to multiline query results, then identify the relevant results-view code and tests; done means multiline values display at an appropriate height without breaking other results.
