So what about hiding connection bar? I almost never use FTP but use SFTP often and this bar is pretty useless (except maybe log but I need it quite rare in case of problems).

It's there for
1. Telling you very obviously that you are currently connected
2. Showing the disconnect button
3. Showing the log

I may have multiple connections in background tabs, and the panel is senseless in such case. You can indicate opened connections by e.g. an overlay icon over network drive button or in some other way... The panel uses too much screen space for almost zero profit.
