New feature: Enable "Cancel running operation (Esc)" button while fetching (filtered/ordered) records in data tab

When applying filters or orders on a big table in the data tab, the operation may be very long. It would be nice to stop the query running on the server by clicking the red button "Cancel running operation (Esc)" like when running a query in the query tab. Maybe useful also when returning to a table with a previous filter/order stored, without the need to right click on the table on the tree and selecting "Clear data tab filter" as suggested in http://www.heidisql.com/forum.php?t=19756#p19761

That would require the data retrieval to run in a separate thread, which is very much effort when programming. Also quite error prone as I recall from the threaded query feature.
