UX improvement suggestion

[DawsonLeBrown]

Problem to solve

When opening version 1.1.6, the Select firmware dropdown defaults to the oldest firware which has been downloaded, so before flashing a new device, I need to select the latest firmware from the list.

Proposals

Reverse the list

Reverse the list, so that the most recent firmware file downloaded is at the top and automatically selected each time the application is opened.

Persist the selected firmware

Instead of, or as well as reversing the list, perhaps the selected firware file could be persisted in the settings.cfg. This would enable someone who prefers to not use the latest by default to always find their preferred version when the open the application.

Auto download latest

I generally like to use the download latest button prior to flashing any new device. Having this download automated would mean that this (admittedly trivial) task is not needed. If you choose to implement this suggestion, it would probably be best to have a checkbox - defaulting to not selected - so that the user decides if the auto-download should be performed at startup or not. Of course the selected value should be persisted in settings.cfg between startups.
