[patch] multiple selection in rhdb-explain db configuration

This patch adds multiple selection in the database configuration box (it
comes from not using the program after a long time :) The items selected
can be copied or deleted. The first one selected will be the one edited
if 'edit' is pressed.

Humm, I am not sure we want to do that.  It does make it easier for 
someone to delete connections and copy them but it makes it a little bit 
confusing for the Edit option.  And how many times one will be deleting 
connections (except when testing the tool itself)?  Copying several at a 
time seems even less useful.  IMO the disadvantages outweigh the gains 
on this one.

But I will ask/wait for other people's opinions and consult the GUI 
guidelines before we rule this out.

Weather we use it or not, thanks for taking the time to create the 
patch.  Please keep them coming ;-)

Best regards,
Fernando
