I think we should use the maintenance DB as much as possible, and just use the user-selectable connection where needed. BTW - it looks like the patch as-is doesn't prevent the user from selecting an entirely different server. If the user does that (which doesn't seem entirely unreasonable), we need to switch the maintenance DB to the new server too. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgadmin-hackers mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-hackers
