How'd you figure that? You'd need to write the connection pooler, start tracking connection states in far more detail than we do now, and potentially have to start new connections (which is expensive) in response to UI interactions which the user may well expect to be almost instantaneous. More importantly, I don't imagine you'd save much anyway - connections are relatively cheap, and pgAdmin only creates them when you actually need them (and closes them when you close Windows for which they were created). I can't imagine such an architecture saving more than 1 in ten connections at best.
