    Description

      Currently, Compass creates 5 or 6 connections to a database when connecting. These connections do not include the "appName" parameter when connecting. 

      As an administrator of a MongoDB, when listing connections, it is very useful to have a clear indicator of which processes / clients have opened connections (and how many). 

      It would be nice if Compass can pass a default name as the appName parameter, or ideally allow users to enter a custom appName value in the connection settings before connecting to the DB. 

      Not a critical requirement, obviously... but is a good nice to have.
