Bug Description

When setting up a new ssh connection you have to fill in the fields in the following order (translated from Norwegian):

- Server
- Extra information (?)
- Port
- Folder
- Username
- Name of connection

This has bother me on several times, because after I entered the username I automatically types the password and press enter before I have checked the values. This not only means that I have to start the prosess all over, because I can't edit the values, but also that my passwords appears in plain text on my desktop.

So I propose the following dialog:
- Server
- Port
- Folder
- Username

Name of the connection is automatically set to the server name, but should of course be editable afterwards by pressing F2 or right clicking like on ordinary files.
