Description

In the query view, the table is shown at the top of the file and in the status bar. The Modify Table view doesn't have any indication of which connection you are using.

Research direction

Start at the Modify Table view and compare it with the query view, where the table and connection are already shown at the top of the file and in the status bar. Trace the existing connection-display entry point and make the active database identifiable in Modify Table; done means users can tell which connection they are using.
