[QGIS-Developer] DBManager save querys only saves selected code - Bug or Feature?

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi,

Is there any other software with this behavior to "save only selected"? 
Or a use case where this is desirable?

 From top of my mind I can't find anything and I think all our other 
editors always save the full text, regardless of selection.

Regards

Matthias
