Description
Describe the solution you'd like
In an environment with dozens (hundreds, perhaps) servers organized in a tree with subgroups, becomes impossible to the users perceive they forgot a connection open.
Would be a nice addition a simple view with a summary of currently open connections.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Expand all nodes, but it becomes harder as soon as the number of subgroups and servers increase.

Research direction
Start by reviewing pgAdmin's server tree and the existing connection-related UI to determine where open connection state is represented. Define the summary's scope, grouping, and behavior for nested server groups before identifying the relevant entry points and tests. Done means users can reliably see which connections remain open without expanding every tree node.
