      Some linux distributions do not have credential stores or system keychains that Compass can use. This results in passwords in connections not being saved. This ticket involves notifying those users with a toast, or something in the connection form that passwords will not be saved as a result of a lack of credential store.

      We've gotten a few questions and bug reports that result in this and we'd like to be more proactively notifying them of the issue.
