Re: Bug:MasterPassword without control to modify save connection

The purpose of master password is not to prevent you from modifying the stored sessions. It's only to protect your stored passwords. So if you pressed Esc on the Master password prompt, the password stored in the session (is any) is not decrypted and hence not loaded onto the Login dialog. While host name, user name, etc are loaded.
