I want to be able to edit server & database setup in the Enterprise Gateway. Currently, I can add new ones, but not edit ones already setup.

I modified the post to only show "Edit" . You can delete data source by clicking on "..." next to the Data source instance

Agree. This is a must-have.
It doesn't make sense to need to delete + create a new data source.

There feature will definitively simplify administrator's life. It is a real pain when you want to rename a data source and to achieve that you need to re-create it. Totally agree!

I Support this idea. Recreating a datasource, just to change the name of the data source or the name of the referenced Database is not a desirable.

If you need to "edit" a datasource beyond changing the user and password you can just delete the one that is there and create a new one with the changes you need.

Agree. I need the ability to connect to multiple Salesforce orgs. Currently I don't think that there's a way to switch between them or to even remove one and add another.
