Autoconnect preference by remote system

In Windows - Preferences - Remote Systems, the "Connect automatically on startup" property would be useful if we could choose which remote system we want to auto-connect, not all connections.

It is useful to avoid logging into ALL connections in case we have any of them, and it is also useful for better p2c management.

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us.

    We currently have an existing option to open Remote Systems view to previous state under Preferences > Remote Systems > "Re-open Remote Systems view to previous state". This preference ensures that whatever connections were expanded before are expanded and connected, if needed. Would this be adequate for this idea/RFE?

    Thank you for your suggestion and continued support and we would like to hear back from you soon.
