Description:
In the Settings -> Manage Servers page, the filter area provides a number of fields to filter the details. The Query Analyzer and Agent Transport drop down menus have a blank entry in them which does not make sense. This is inconsistent with the Server Name drop down which does not have a blank entry.

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
Remove the blank and make the drop down menus consistent in display

The blank entries on those fields represent "any value" or "ignore this filter".

The two-part name field functions a bit differently: the presence or absence of a search string connotes applying the name filter, and the search type is subordinate to that.

We might want to swap those fields, so its a bit more consistent, true.  If so, then the search text field should probably be conditionally visible based on the drop-down.
