Feature Request: Change default focus behaviour in "List of Channels" dialog to "Filter" field

[aphirst]

Currently, when opening the "List of Channels" dialog for a particular IRC server, the keyboard/mouse focus defaults to the "Download List" button. Thus, when you start typing on this dialog, nothing happens, until you manually select the "Filter" text input field.

I think that it would be a small but very useful change to have the default keyboard/mouse focus instead be this text input field. Relevant to note is that pressing Enter with this field selected also downloads the list, as it must do so in order to apply the filter you just typed (which could of course just be blank).

Any update on this suggestion?

Its a fine suggestion and not a hard patch if anybody wants to do it..
