Description:
I am using two different logins to the same database (one read-only), the other with full priveledges.  Normally I use the read-only one for protection from accidental changes, however occassionally I need to make changes.  Thus I close the read-only connection and open the read/write connection.  Every time I do this the stored password for the previous connection is lost (even when I request storage in the vault).

How to repeat:
Create two logins to the same database and switch between them

Suggested fix:
store both passwords

Fixed as of 5.2.36:
+        Switching between two logins for a single database connection
+        required the password to be reentered with each switch.
