Description
Describe the solution you'd like
Currently, when QT or ERD tabs are restored, a separate password prompt appears for each tab, even if they share the same connection information. This results in the user having to enter the same password multiple times, which is inconvenient and repetitive.
Expected Behavior:
If the user enters the password for one tab with a specific connection, all other tabs using the same connection info should automatically connect without prompting again when the UI loads.

Research direction
The issue names QT and ERD restore tabs but no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing restore-time password prompts and connection matching in the UI, then verify that entering one password connects every tab with identical connection info without additional prompts.
