    +    <para>The quickconnect extension provides a connection bar on the 
Guacamole Client home page

connections or even to have
    +        to create the connections at all, aside from typing the URI.</para>

    Is this the case? I thought the connections persist in server-side memory, 
within the user's session, independently of whether the browser has been closed.
