Interoperability Production: "Add a 'Type-to-Filter' ability in dropdown selections"

Our InterSystems HealthConnect Environment uses multiple namespaces and in those namespaces we have hundreds of components. It can be really tedious and slow to scroll though each drop down to select a component in a routing rule (targets or sources) or the default variables. I would like to begin typing the name of the component (or even eventually any part of the name) and have the dropdown list begin filtering to components that match (or contain) the value that I am type so that I can select components more easily.

    Agreed or maybe a way to categorize the Targets as the sort order that is available can be somewhat confusing having to scroll through the entire list of other Processing, Rules, or Operations.
