controlcaps in view=monitor #3303

In view=monitor, under the control tab or heading, the "control type" is a pulldown allowing the user to select from all the available control scripts. When one chooses a script, that script requires configuration (setting of options) which is accessed by clicking on "edit" beside the pulldown for the control script. When one clicks on "edit", one is directed to https://[servername]/zm/index.php?view=controlcaps which lists ALL of the control scripts. This has proven very confusing to the new user. This should point to ONLY the control script selected in the pulldown. Also, when the configuration of the control script is saved in controlcaps, it should take the user back to the monitor with the new script SAVED in the monitor (the selected script).

Alternatively, selecting "edit" when no control script is selected might reasonably bring up all of the scripts as it does now, select one of them and edit its config, and then save, returning to the monitor with the new selected script saved.

The current approach allows a user to select a control script, configure it, save it, and exit the monitor without actually setting the correct chosen control script. The script configuration may have been saved, but not the selection of that script in the monitor.

Is this a bug? Possibly, but more likely it should be considered an enhancement.
