Optional behavior for Confirmation Dialog Popup #200

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. There is a filament selection on the octoprint main page in the sidebar. The two must match. The sidebar selector must be set to the spool you want to use AND the confirmation window must ALSO select the filament you want to use. That is...wierd. I can work with this but the text in the confirmation window does not adequately explain this.

Describe the solution you'd like I would love to see two additions/changes.

The confirmation dialog popup should say, in addition to what is there, "The selected spool(s) must match the spools selected in the main Octoprint Sidebar."

Personally, I would prefer to not have to match it up. I would prefer to have the confirmation window not be a double check but instead update the default choice in the sidebar. I understand why this double-check system is there, but it is clunky and cumbersome for me. I suggest adding a selection to the settings page to change the behavior of the dialog.

Describe alternatives you've considered There are none, as far as I can tell. The only alternative is to not use the Filament Manager plugin.
