1 and 2 were something I wanted to do but don't have the time right now.
So, if Andreas wants to work on this, I completely agree :)
I also wanted to add a combobox for each column, showing unique values.
Choosing one of the unique values will filter by this value. It seems to
me more interesting than 3.
Moreover, I would be great to have this (1 and 2) for server status window.
