Tim Worcester commented on GUACAMOLE-221:
-----------------------------------------
[~vnick]: Found it, it is the same bug that we found before. There is no form
data associated with connection groups. It fails on this if check in the
clientController.
line 1036 in clientController.js
```java
// Attempt to prompt for parameters only if the parameters that apply
// to the underlying connection are known
if (!$scope.client.protocol || !$scope.client.forms)
return;
```
Looks like it works as expected when I click on an individual connection :)

> Some parameters, such as the username/password for VNC or RDP, are better
> entered manually within the client when connecting rather than stored on the
> server in MySQL or {{user-mapping.xml}}.
> Storing secure data within parameters on the server side has security
> implications that don't fit well with all use cases.
> Further, some connections would benefit if their settings can be modified
> locally before connecting. A user could change the color depth or screen size
> of their RDP session, for example, for the sake of a slower connection.
