[google-cloud-sql-discuss] Why do I get "Access denied for user 'root'@'%' (using password: YES)" when I sign on from Sequel Pro and add or change a user?

I have a Google Cloud SQL MySQL (Second Generation) instance. And I've granted myself %-level remote access to it.

Accessing it from Sequel Pro (https://www.sequelpro.com), as ROOT, I find that if I create a user from the Sequel Pro "Users" panel, it gets created, with the specified password, but I get an "Access denied for user 'root'@'%' (using password: YES)" message, and it won't accept granting that user remote access unless I disconnect and reconnect my ROOT Sequel Pro session.

Once I disconnect and reconnect as ROOT, I can successfully give the user remote access, but it gives me the "Access denied for user 'root'@'%' (using password: YES)" message. And I can successfully grant it privileges, but again, it gives me the "Access denied for user 'root'@'%' (using password: YES)" message.

Can anybody here shed any light on this?
