Description Kevin Doyle

When creating a new connection I plan to use it, so it would be nice if it was expanded when I create it.

This is how it use to work for IBM RSE.

By "expand", do you mean "connect"?

I think that this should be a Preference in the Wizard, similar to the "check address" checkbox on the first wizard page. There could be a "connect when done" checkbox.

I mean expand.  I should be able to see the subsystems for my connection after creating it.  It shouldn't be collapsed to just the host.

Comment 3 Martin Oberhuber

Yes, I agree, that sounds like a good enhancement. 
No UI Checkbox would be needed for this.

I've committed code to expand the new connection when created via a wizard.

Dave can we backport this fix as well?
