Search multiplayer games: Option to hide empty and full servers

TL;DR
Search multiplayer games: Option to hide empty and full servers
What ?
I suggest an additional option in the "Multiplayer" > "Browse public games" dialog. The option, when enabled, removes empty and full servers from the list.

Could also be done with a 4 option pull down menu: "show all" / "hide empty" / "hide full" / "hide empty and full"
Why ?
When going to play multiplayer, I want to play with other people. Empty and full servers are not what I am looking for. At the moment, about 80% of the listed servers are empty, and some are full. I could sort by player count, but I will still see the full server and I cannot use the playime sort. Would be great if we could hide the empty and full servers.

Other reason why is because it sounds easy to implement (based on my own coding experience). Simple yield at low cost.

I, too, think this is a much-needed feature.
