Problem
Users find having to confirm their playground run each time to be cumbersome and want a way to disable it depending on what type of database it is - i.e if production, they want the confirmation, if development, they don't want confirmation.
Proposed solution
- For each connection, we'll leave the default to show the confirmation popup.
- In the confirmation we'll show a checkbox that says "Don't ask for confirmation again for this connection"
- If users check this box, we'll no longer show confirmation for that specific connection
- Downside of this proposal is there is no way to reverse the decision - i.e if you disable once, you'll no longer be able to enable again. To mitigate this, we should add an extension setting to enable confirmation again at the connection level
