Bug Description

Originally filed as a question:

While opening with gedit a file from a remote repository (sftp),
I am constantly asked for the password ( at every operation, including copy and paste
a line of code).
If I disable the gedit plugin "GDP Bazaar Integration" everything works perfect,
but I loose the ability of handling my repository from gedit.

Quick analysis:

This is probably a bug in bzr-gedit (the gedit plugin you are using). At a glance I think the issue is in BazaarWindowHelper._do_set_active_uri_from_tab: it looks like it will repeatedly reopen the branch without reusing a previously opened instance (or even reusing a previous connection). It probably should be caching the recently opened branches and reusing those objects here.

Even using an agent to manage ssh keys/passwords this bug slows down the editing process considerably. It's simply not practical to use Gedit Bazaar plugin with remote SFTP files as it is.
