Description
## What did you do?
- Clicked cmd+T to open a new tab.
## What did you expect to happen?
- I expected to quickly open a new tab to see data in a different table in the same database schema.
## What actually happened?
- The app opened a new tab but started from scratch, reconnecting to the same database and reloading all tables from scratch, which took several seconds over VPN.
## What software versions are you using?
Postico version: 2.1 dev
macOS version: 14.1.2
PostgreSQL version: PostgreSQL 9.6.24

Research direction
Reproduce cmd+T in Postico 2.1 dev against PostgreSQL 9.6.24 over a VPN, then trace the new-tab flow to identify where the existing connection and table list are discarded. Done means opening a tab for another table in the same schema without reconnecting or reloading the table list.
