[ome-users] Server field in webadmin, webclient is redundant

On the login form of webadmin and webclient there is the field called Server that is set 
to "---------" or "localhost:4063".

In my opinion, this field should be removed because the server is selected by the http:// 
page address and so it does not bring anything to the login process. It brings only 
inconvenience to the user forced to change the entry from "----" to "localhost" every time 
(and this 2nd entry is not sticky).

I understand it is done to have the same login form for web application and standalone 
clients, but the two things are sufficiently distinct to deserve different login screens.

Hope it helps.
Ciao!
