[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-22668?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-22668: ------------------------------------------ To me the current approach where the connection page can be skipped is that it's non-obvious that one can hit "Back" to select a connection. It's not intuitive, unexpected. To me the problem boils down to the fact that the connection page always authenticates and takes a few seconds to do it. I believe that the annoyance would be better solved in having the connection caching the authentication state allowing the connection page to skip the authentication (if the connection already is authenticated). The problem with this cached state is that the token can be expired and the assuming the connection is authenticated might be wrong. But then skipping connection page has the same "problem". -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
