Bug Description

The "Connect to Server" program should memorize the typed information from last time. Just like when you fill forms on the internet, your browser memorizes that you typed for each field. The same should happen with "Connect to Server"

The way it is currently, is very inconvenient because I have to type about a hundred characters every time I try to log in to my server.

The "Service type" should also be remembered. I always have to change that to FTP with login from Public FTP.

When you go to the "Places" menu, and click "Connect to Server..." a window will open. In order to connect to the server I am using, I have to choose "FTP (with login)", type the server address, the port number, and the username EVERY TIME.

There should be an option to memorize that information after typing it once.
