      Description

      afw.display.setDefaultBackend("firefly") will attempt to connect to a Firefly server running on localhost:8080. If no connection is possible, the command fails. For cases when a remote server or alternate port are desired, setDefaultBackend will be modified to accept optional arguments.

      Meanwhile, the workaround is to use afwDisplay.Display(frame=n, host=xxx, port=yyyy) to connect to a remote Firefly server.
