Hi Florian

Following are the review comments:

   - The "MAX_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS" parameter is not present in the *config.py*.
   It should be there with some default value maybe 3.
   - Can be added like

##########################################################################
# MAX_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS which sets the number of failed login attempts that
# are allowed. If this value is exceeded the account is locked and can be
# reset by an administrator. By setting the variable to the value zero
# this feature is deactivated.
##########################################################################
MAX_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS = 3


   - I have tested by specifying the above value, and it seems the logic is
   not correct. I can perform N number of unsuccessful attempts and when I
   provided the correct password it shows the flash message "Account locked".
   - Once the account is locked, the pgAdmin4 server needs to restart, can
   we make it time-bound? I mean after N minutes user can try again, so no
   need to restart the pgAdmin4 server.
