• Fixed issue where program exited unexpectedly (Now its a function instead of an event handler)

• Fixed issue where main_view kept subscribing to the same events

Its also known that when adding a new server, there is a chance you cannot open it until you restart the program entirely. This is the same behaviour from 0.5, which will hopefully be resolved also in the next update.
