> Having OS server adapters showing started/stopped states is quite perplexing, because they are completely arbitrary.
> For example, I can click start on a stopped server with no connection, then just cancel the connection dialog - it throws an error, but it proceeds to started state anyway.
> It is meaningless to have different states, when their only function is to predend the server is in some state. Plus it introduces steps like the 'stop server before deleting' dialog.
