Does anyone know if MySQL Workbench will work with a Percona 5.1 server?
If not, can anyone suggest a similar tool that will?
Yes. Percona server is fully compatible with MySQL.
Doesnt work for me. Percona actually says their support excludes MySQL Workbench on their website:
Percona MySQL Support excludes coverage for:
The NDB Cluster database and storage engine (available as a separate option) All graphical tools, such as MySQL Workbench

Frustrating :-(
Navicat does support it, and has modeling features like MySQL Workbench. Unfortunately it isn't free...
