Suggestion: Show names for devices on access restriction screen #226

Suggested enhancement:

For the "Applies to" list on the Access Restriction screen, It would be helpful if we could see a device name for each the device beside the MAC address.

CB:32:68:D1:00:F6  (Galaga)
FF:20:8A:0C:32:D6 (Defender)
99:94:D1:28:25:A6 (Zaxxon)

Allowing the user to specify a device name in an extra field would be cool, but alternately it would still be helpful if it could just display the hostname for devices that also show up in the "Status/Device List" screen. (How long are these hostnames cached anyhow... for the duration of the DHCP lease or a different time interval than that?)

It would similarly be helpful if the field for adding devices to the "applies to" list could allow you to optionally specify a hostname and the software could map it to a MAC address if the hostname is currently in the Device List. Possibly a "combo box" that could allow you to type in the hostname and would provide a drop down with text completion or something like that.
