Description:
Right now when creating a new connection in the connection manager window "new" creates a new connection but i need to click on the connection list entry for the new connection before i can actually start to configure it.

As in most cases the defaults would need to be changed anyway that extra click is a bit annoying (although it does't hurt too much)

How to repeat:
- open "Manage Connections"
- press [New]
- form fields are still grayed out until the name entry for the new connection is clicked

Suggested fix:
make it editable after creation right away

This actually only happens on the *first* connection created, on the second and further connections it works as expected. So actually not a feature request as the feature actually exists but a minor (off-by-one?) bug instead ...

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has already been fixed in the latest released version of that product, which you can download at
