Not reliably, because we only get CONNECTION_GOOD, CONNECTION_BAD as
connection status flags from libpq, and in the event of a connection
error, get a possibly-localised error message. There are no
standardised codes for connection errors (unlike query results, for
which you can get SQL status codes etc).

We don't know it, unless you just typed it in. Libpq reads it from
.pgpass and pgAdmin never touches it.
