USS filters in Export Remote JAR dialog

When developing Java batch applications our teams want to execute and test them as fast as possible. Therefore the "Export Remote Jar" functionality is used to reduce the number of manual steps. The dialog when selecting the remote target directory only offers starting at the root of the USS file system (path /, attached as screenshot). The usual USS filters are missing (compared to the RSE view for example).
