Research direction

Start by reviewing commit d300a7bbde97b3e31b99381bc56e17989fa919b7 and the existing password-button work. Confirm how the username popup and server-initialization check are implemented, then determine the remaining keychain-storage work; done means the checklist is complete and the button supports setting or resetting PostgreSQL passwords.

Description

enhancement

I've started working on a button that allows the user to set / reset the postgresql passwords (see commit d300a7bbde97b3e31b99381bc56e17989fa919b7)

  • new password should be stored in keychain
  • usernames should be selectable as popup button
  • check if server is initialized
