      Problem Statement/Rationale

      Establish a new connection using a connection string with

      1. No credentials.  Leads to a success message and no database list
      2. Only username.  Leads to auth failure.

      There is no option to prompt for credentials that I could find so the only option is to supply the complete connection string with full authentication credentials.  This is a departure from the mongosh behavior where no credentials leads to an error when doing "show dbs" and a password prompt when only the username is supplied.

      Additional Notes

      Not technically a bug I would say but a user experience enhancement and/or feature parity with the mongosh
