Workflow defaults for INPUT and OUTPUT data tools "connect a file or database" value

[PeterGoldey]

Or ability to batch change the connection string from A --> B for all tools using A.

Or ability to set a default "saved connection" for a workflow and if you change it cascade the change to all tools.

Case:  you have numerous connections in a workflow to a database.  You then either:

a) move your data somewhere else and need to replace all the connecitons

b) OR have a standard process for working against DEV, Staging, etc. and want to switch the workflow to use a different saved connection

I agree - if 95% of my workflows connect to a particular database, it would be a useful time-saver if the input and output tools defaulted to that database.

Thanks Sean.

Even better than having an initial default setting, would be a way to change all existing "A" connections in a workflow to "B" connections by "change default AND apply to tools in current workflow".  (this would need to not change EVERY connection in the workflow, but just the ones currently using the existing default).
