Currently the Connections and the Config views appear on two separate panels/tabs and I find it awkward having to go back and forth between the two tabs. My suggestion is to have these two combined into a single view, similarly to a file manager. On the left side you would have the connections and on the right side you would see the configuration details of the currently selected connection. Please see mock-up below…

👍 ...I'd also like to have the connections sidebar sticky on all tabs. That's how it was prior to upgrading to the latest non-stable. As it is now (connections on a tab),each time I want to start a new connection or edit an existing, I have to switch tabs. Not good UX there.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, this is already the default setup. The
connections tree and the config panel are shown on the left, untabbed.
Active connect windows shown on the right. The view can be reset to this
default by going to View -> Reset layout.

That worked. After upgrading, the sidebar was converted to a tab that only included connections.

Nice, I asked for this feature on Jira.

It seems a bit strange that connections and folders can be manipulated from the File menu even when the Connections panel isn't visible, i.e. you can be working blind.

Would it make sense for those entries to be greyed out while the Connections panel is not visible? Or to automatically show the Connections panel when any of those options are selected from the File menu?

Possible small improvement for version 1.8
