Description

Self-explanatory. A text field that filters the server list on the input. Various regexp options are possible, but I suppose a simple "show if server name includes this text" behaviour is enough for starters.

Research direction

Start by locating the server list UI entry point and tracing how the displayed servers are built or refreshed. Add a text field whose input limits the list to server names containing that text, then verify that matching and non-matching servers are displayed correctly.
