Filtering text in lists of items (train station, savegames, etc)

TL;DR

Filter in text edit fields in GUI

What ?

During typing in savegame window or name of train station automatically filter list below.

Why ?

On these list, savegame or train stations you can have hundreds od items with something similar names, like CTRL + F in inventory to search recipes)

- If i start type 'Fre' - all save-games contains 'Fre' in name will be displayed
- If I type 'ore' - all train station contains 'min' (case insensitive) in name
It can be very useful if we have hundreds of stations with good naming convention.

EDIT: And in rename train station window.

Similar suggestion: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=78123 Changing train stop names, the screen should filter the list when typing at the top

Ok, but in load/save game lists? After saving, we lost original savegame name and we must search manually.

No, and that was the reason not to merge it, just mentioning.
