Secure my connections

Make connections more secure by asking for a password or passphrase every time I click 'connect' on any of my already saved connections. Each connection should have, like a 'security configuration' dialog or something, where you can set and/or update password for that connection.

    Hi there, it is possible in Compass to save your connection information with a password placeholder instead of the actual database user password. For example, you can save your connection information with "xxx" as the password so that you need to update the connection string each time you connect for added security. When entering your correct connection string, make sure to click the "Connect" button instead of the "Save & Connect" button in the connectional modal to ensure the placeholder is still stored alongside your connection information for future connects. Does this functionality address your request?
