Since release 2.3.0 phpMyAdmin allows to bookmark queries. This can be useful for queries

$cfgServers[n]['bookmarktable'] so phpMyAdmin will be able to find the bookmark table.</li>
</ul>

them to autoconnect to that server when phpMyAdmin is started, or set it to 0 to be given
a list of servers without logging in.
