Describe the issue:

The listed items in the workspace trust view do not display the correct SSH remote. It seems to always indicate the last connected remote instead.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Connect to remote1, trust a folder
  2. Connect to remote2, trust a folder
  3. Check workspace trust view, both folders are listed as remote2

Expected or desired behavior:

Trusted folders should display the appropriate SSH remote

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the two-remote sequence and inspecting the workspace trust view and its SSH remote data; done means each trusted folder displays the remote where it was trusted, rather than the most recently connected remote.
