Wish IDE B4A Bridge connect by name

[Alessandro71]

The connect option of the IDE remembers the last IP used.
Since the IP address may change by DHCP lease expiration, and the Bridge can identify the device name, a better option would be the reconnection to the last used device, even if the IP has changed meanwhile

I'm sure that this has been requested before, linking MAC address to device name etc etc etc. I do like this idea, but personally I don't mind how it currently works.

I personally wish that the IDE would show (preferably at the button of the screen) the name of the currently connected device, as I often work with 4 or 5 devices at any one time.
