I tried quite some time to reproduce the issue tonight, and failed to do
so. The only time it removes the password is when I unchecked the "Store
password" checkbox, which appears to be a valid behaviour.

Unless you're able to show me how to do this, I'm afraid we won't do
anything on that matter (because there is nothing to do).

This is how it happens to me (on Windows at work, I haven't tried on linux at home and I don't have a mac):

1. connect to server, save password
2. disconnect from server
3. stop server
4. connect to server (fails, of course)
5. start server
6. connect to server

pgAdmin asks for my password
