Description
Would it be possible to preserve the position of the horizontal divider in the query editor between connections? I always drag the divider to show more of the query text, rather than the results, but every time I close the window for a connection (or restart Postico), the query editor re-opens with the default layout, and I have to re-drag the divider every time.

Repro:
1. Open a connection to any database from the initial favorites menu
2. ⌘⇧T to open query editor
3. Drag the horizontal divider between the upper query text and the lower query results
4. ⌘w to close the current connection (or restart Postico)
5. Open the same connection again
6. ⌘⇧T to open query editor
7. The horizontal divider has reset to default

Research direction
Start with the query editor opened by ⌘⇧T and reproduce the divider reset using the listed connection and restart steps. Trace where the editor layout is initialized and connection state is restored; done means the horizontal divider position persists when the connection is closed and reopened or Postico restarts.
