Description:
Add a possibility to specify a filter for hostnames, grouping servers based on the filter.

How to repeat:
Add 20 servers with names starting with 'mysql', add 20 with names starting with 'sun', manually add them to groups

Suggested fix:
Add a filter functionality, '*mysql*' > mysql group, '*sun*' > mysql group
So that when adding servers with a defined hostname standard, grouping is automated

Good idea, will consider during our next review of enhancements

We could add a regex to our group name definition object/table and take a scan through those for each server that is newly discovered... Feels like a quick and dirty solution to the problem.
