I think we can be more clever with mixing and matching the selection combobox with MNodeSelectionObjects (listed from the CN) and String URLs (manually entered). We only save the MN URL in the configuration file, so we'd rely on matching that up with the list from the CN. We can't store nodeId since an unregistered MN will not have one and we really do need the URL, not just a random [unregistered] nodeId in the Morpho config.

Now displaying the Node Name in the selection list. You can type the Node Base URL if your MN is not registered with the CN and we will use that manually entered URL. If (in the future) a node is registered with that same URL, it will then show the node name as the selected entry. This is pretty slick, actually.
