Public bug reported:

When setting up a new ssh connection you have to fill in the fields in
the following order (translated from Norwegian):

- Server
- Extra information (?)
- Port 
- Folder
- Username
- Name of connection

This has bother me on several times, because after I entered the
username I automatically types the password and press enter before I
have checked the values. This not only means that I have to start the
prosess all over, because I can't edit the values, but also that my
passwords appears in plain text on my desktop.

So I propose the following dialog:
- Server
- Port
- Folder 
- Username

Name of the connection is automatically set to the server name, but
should of course be editable afterwards by pressing F2 or right clicking
like on ordinary files.

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed
