Bug description:
With the current GTK dialog (as in 3.6.4).
Users, working on a lan with many printers, report that it's difficult for
them
to find the printer they want to use because GTK provide no way to
search/filter/sort the list of printers.
Typeahead is working, but it's not really obvious (so some users don't know
about it) and only works on the printer names, not on their location.
Some possible improvements:
- providing a way to search/filter in the list, taking into account names and
locations
- make the columns sortable, that would allow users to, at least, sort by
location
- sort the most used printers always first
