This is absolutely unreal. I never wanted to have to waste my time asking about pgAdmin 4 ever again, but here we are...

Every single time I open it, even with a dedicated browser profile which never gets its data cleared, and even with the special configuration options (requiring one to hack a file) to not ask for a stupid "master password", it **still** forces me to first double-click the "Servers", then double-click the actual "server" to get back to work. So that's four pointless extra clicks every time I want to use pgAdmin 4.

How do I make it connect immediately? Why would anyone ever **not** want it to at the very least show the list of servers? Why have all this extra, pointless work?

Needless to say, there's nothing in the "preferences" to set this. It's seriously mind-boggling. The only reason I've never mentioned this before has been that there's even worse issues that overshadowed this.

Sometimes, randomly, it *does* connect immediately to the server once you've double-clicked the "Servers" thing. The fact that this is not consistent, but (apparently) random, just further confuses me and makes me (again) wonder if this program was designed purposely as a psychological experiment.
