Is this a fault of me or of DBeaver? I just created it with CREATE DATABASE "<name>" OWNER postgres

PostgreSQL is special. Different databases require different physical connections. You can’t just switch active database in current connection. Changing active database means disconnect+connect, loose of all current transactions, different security, etc.
Most of tools doesn’t allow PG database switch at all. In DBeaver there is a special workaround. Perhaps it should be additionally improved…
I’m pretty sure we need a new ticket. It is completely not clear what to do in this one. As in PG different DBs are actually different connections we can’t make this UI similar to other database systems. There was no any UI solution proposed. Or a workaround. It is a kind of bug report but it is not a bug. So this ticket may lay here forever and depressing us (as we have too many open tickets).
Let’s create a new ticket with some proposed solution, or at least with some discussion which will let us to find a solution - this will make everybody happy.
And I’m sure that @tati-kru didn’t mean any offence here, sorry if it was a bit frustrating.
