On the "Configuration" home page, move the "Host Name" column before the "Port" and "Path" columns or state the host name above the table instead

Currently, "Host Name" is the last column on the "Configuration" home page, but it only ever has 1 distinct value since the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility currently looks at only the AVEVA Adapter instances on the same computer (i.e. the value of "Host Name" is only ever the name of that computer).

If there are no plans for the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility to be able to configure AVEVA Adapters on a different computer, then the "Host Name" column should be removed and replaced with a line above the entire table that states "Host name: <host name>".

If there are plans for the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility to be able to configure AVEVA Adapters on a different computer, then the "Host Name" column should be moved to come before the "Port" and "Path" columns because the host name is required to give context to the port and the path. That is, if you are reading a row in order (left to right for English), it makes more sense to encounter the host name and then already know that the following port and path apply to that host than to encounter the port and path first and then later learn which host those are for. If the suggestion "Be able to reorder table columns" is implemented, then the "Host Name" column should still come before the "Port" and "Path" columns by default.

The AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility is currently in what seems to be a transition state. It has the "Host Name" column, as if to get ready for different values to appear in it, but since it currently does not have different values in it, it appears at the end because it offers the least useful (but still useful) information of all of the columns at the moment.
