Description

It is currently necessary to setup postgresql databases to have password access in order to access them via QGIS. It makes much more sense to ignore the password field if the user does not provide one. There is nothing in libpq that requires you to provide a password. If you drop that field from the conninfo string, you will be able to connect without a password (as long as the database is setup in trust mode).
