List Manager: Better default for range-end, when adding new IP to a list

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Suggestion submitted via email by "Cyril":

In the List Manager, when you create a new list and enter a new IP, the
default is 0.0.0.0. However, when you enter a new starting IP, the ending
IP should be the same as what you just enter (instead of 0.0.0.0), because
most of the time, you have to enter it again.

example:

right now: 
name (enter) 1.2.3.4 (enter) (enter) gives you: name 1.2.3.4 0.0.0.0

To have starting IP 1.2.3.4 with ending IP 1.2.3.4, you have to type it twice.

should be:
name (enter) 1.2.3.4 (enter) (enter) gives you: name 1.2.3.4 1.2.3.4

That's right, but for the typing thing you can just copy & paste with the mouse.
Avoid typing to minimize typing errors.

I agree with Cyril - I think potentially this is a bigger flaw.  I also use 
list 
manager to allow specific addresses.  When I entered just one address (and in 
doing 
so assumed only x.x.x.x would then be allowed), I suddenly saw the number of 
IPs 
being blocked drop drastically.  When I rechecked the list manager, I saw what 
was 
documented above - everything from 0.0.0.0 to x.x.x.x became unblocked as per 
the 
list.  

Sure, simple work around is to copy and paste the address twice, but surely if 
you 
only enter one start IP and no end IP address, only one address should get 
blocked.  
Obvious if you're looking out for this and checking carefully, but if not, 
you're 
inadvertently killing the excellent Peerblock for it's meant for!

Any chance of an update for 1.1?
