Warmachine: Results entry to filter Leader selection to only valid options

During results entry for Warmachine you are presented a list of all the leader models in the game when selecting who each player played. Given that each players faction is known from registration, can this list be filtered to only valid selections for each player.

Not only would this reduce screen clutter, and make entering results faster and easier, it will remove the possibility to accidently pick the wrong leader when that leader is available to multiple armies, which then makes looking at result statistics unclear at best.

For instance, if player A is Winter Korps, and player B is Sea Raiders, then when entering results the list of options for Player A's leader would be: Baranova, Borisyuk, Kovoskiy, Vilkul, Sikora and Savaryn.

Player B would only be able to select from: Horruskh, Kishtaar, Oriax, Orsus, Sabbreth.
