Hi.

I saw this feature in the changelog "Ask to reset connection in the query tool.", so I thought this would be something
Irequested a long time ago, that if connection is lost, the query and the table editing tool would ask to reconnect
insteadof just display an error and then ignore everything. 

But I seem to be wrong - the behavior hasn't changed relative to 1.12.x. Did I interpret it incorrectly?

The scenario now is rather unfortunate.

- I have a query tool and a table edit window open.
- While my Mac sleeps, the connection is lost.
- I try to refresh or do anything in the tool or window, and I get an error and I can no longer do anything with these
windows.
- So I close the windows, go to the main window and refresh the database. It asks me whether I want it to reconnect.
- I say yes, it reconnects - but when I try to open the table edit window again, PgAdmin crashes.

So I have to restart PgAdmin and set everything up from scratch.

By the way, it was discussed in the past that column width setups in the table window should be saved somewhere - at
leastfor the last table edited. They are not saved and so I need to start adjusting the columns over again every time
theabove scenario happens. I suppose if re-connecting from the edit tool was possible, this would be a moot point.
