Documentation Wiki If enabled user can enter any MySQL server in login form for cookie auth  
Documentation Wiki Define whether the previous login should be recalled or not in cookie authentication mode  
Documentation Wiki Define how long (in seconds) a login cookie is valid
Documentation Wiki Defines how long (in seconds) a login cookie should be stored in browser. The default of 0 means that it will be kept for the existing session only, and will be deleted as soon as you close the browser window. This is recommended for non-trusted environments.  
Documentation Wiki If TRUE, logout deletes cookies for all servers; when set to FALSE, logout only occurs for the current server. Setting this to FALSE makes it easy to forget to log out from other servers when connected to multiple servers.
