Various logon problems #3765

Describe the bug

I use different userids for different things.

I clicked on one profile ( with authetication of userid and password) it asks me
Password
Enter the password for the zosmfuserid connection leave blank not to store (Press enter to confirm or escape to cancel)

First problem... I do not know which userid this is for, I have to go and look at the profile to find out.
It should say
Enter the password for userid xxxxx for the zosmfuserid connection.

What do the instructions mean.. leave blank .. I did ... and it did not connect etc.


I entered an invalid password and it displayed a list of saved filters. This is strange because it looks like the login worked - but it had the wrong password

There were no messages about invalid password
I was expecting it to say .."Invalid password - please reenter" -- not continue as if it worked.


I selected a dataset and I got

ICH70003I YOU HAVE EXCEEDED THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF RACF PASSWORD
ATTEMPTS.
ICH408I USER(ADCDB ) GROUP(TEST ) NAME(ADCDB ) 828
LOGON/JOB INITIATION - EXCESSIVE PASSWORD OR PASS PHRASE ATTEMPTS

I think it tried to logon more than once with the invalid password and caused the ICH70003I

It should know it is not connected, and so not try to display any data sets.
if it got the first/second error message - it should not try a third time.
