Description

Before, if the user started a playground, and no connection is currently active, it would show a "toast" message in the bottom right corner:

The new logic is to instead offer them which collection to connect to:

However, I found this easy to miss, since if the user has no connections, its only a single line dropdown with muted colors that popup up.
So I added this interim step, so that the user gets very clear indication as to what is happening.
For experienced users, this should not be too much of a hassle, as they will probably make sure they are connected to a collection before running a playground.
