Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I change (MySQL/MariaDB) databases frequently and have come to use SQL scripts without defining an active database using the drop-down at the top bar.

What i do is:

@set db_name = my_current_db_name
select * from ${db_name}.table_name;

Works, but

code completion won't show table names after ${db_name}.
can't easily delete a row from a result set by right-clocking (because, i assume, there is no active database)

Describe the solution you'd like

Something like @set_active_databae = ${db_name}

Additional context

Community Version 25.2.0.202508311659

Hi @sage-nmm
CloudBeaver does not support commands yet. We have plans to add this, but I can’t provide a timeline.
Thanks for feature request
