Description
When adding a node select parameter to a build, the "Select a default slave" dropdown always starts out set to the first alphabetical choice in the list. I think it should always default to "master." At least in my case, the first alphabetical choice is a special slave node that only one job is ever supposed to use, so I have to change this every time I use this feature.

I'm referring to the menu setting as it appears when you configure the parameter. I think the "Select a default slave" dropdown in the parameter configuration should always start out set to master - it seems logical to me that in most cases you would want to use your master node by default, and then add some other nodes as well. What I'm suggesting will reduce the number of things you need to change every time you add a node parameter to a job.

The first in the dropdown is allways the one you have defined as the default slave in your parameter definition - so if you have defined your special node as the default, then this is the reason why.
Just set 'master' as the default and you should be fine...
