Allow retention of current connection on open windows

When a new connection is selected in the "CONNECTIONS" tree, all open MongoDB windows use the selected connection. Can an option be introduced to retain the current connection on any open window?

Detailed Description

Add a "Retain current connection" option that allows open windows to retain their current connection. This would allow different windows to be opened with different connections. Other DB tools do this, so it would be nice to have this here.

Context

Recently ran a tidy up script in our user test environment. Ran an unrelated query in production, and then ran the tidy up script again to check that it had been successful. Of course it now ran in production... oops.

Possible Implementation

Add a "Retain current connection" option, or an option to ask for which connection to use as a window is opened.
