font-family:Arial">A common complaint I have at my site is that Pgadmin doesn’t automatically reconnect if it’s not
connected.   Our networking folks, in their infinite wisdom,  force terminate all sessions after 5mins of inactivity. 
Forclient/server apps like pgadmin it’s a problem, since the session is expected to be connected.  Usually pgadmin will
justcomplain, but often it crashes.   Would be nice if the session is not connected to have it automatically
reconnect.  Also,  would be nice if there were a reconnect option.   Refresh works, but it also often crashes the app.

Highlight and copy are already available. Local save is not. Could be
easy to do.
