After further testing I could narrow down the cause.
When I try to connect to another database on the same host (same
IP-address), then a database of the _same name_ as the one of the
current connection is not listed and cannot be chosen.
Concerns connections on different port or with different login. This
happens to be the one situation where the feature would be most useful
(to me).
Tested with plain TCP/IP connection to a remote server as well as with
SSH-connection and portforwarding.
Contrary to initial suspicions, maintainance DB seems to be unrelated.
The other aforementioned problems still exist in rev. 5508:5517 (but are
less important IMO).
