Pre-set search string for DHCP leases when following shortcut link from DHCP configuration

Description
Hi pfSense DevTeam!
When configuring DHCP Server in WebGUI, pressing on “Show DHCP Leases” logically may cause to redirection on DHCP Leases WebGUI page with filtered IP’s exactly for this interface.
This is logically, because when I doing some settings, or edit IP address range, or add/edit/delete some Additional Pool , add/delete/edit DHCP Static Mappings, or other settings, and restart (or w/o restart) DHCP Server, - in all of this cases I NEED TO SEE RESULTS.
And easiest way to see results of changes,- only in DHCP Leases table.
Reasonable?

Your description isn't very clear on what you are asking for. I can only assume you're asking that if you follow a link from the shortcut that it should be filtered to only show results from that interface?
As I mentioned recently on #14197 considering the interface when loading the leases database isn't viable because that data is not in the lease database and calculating it would be prohibitively expensive/slow on an already slow operation.
Trying to pre-set the search parameters based on the interface might work but it would have to consider all configured pools on the interface, not just the main range. The search interface on that page is handled client side in JavaScript, and though it supports regex patterns, trying to form a pattern for all pools and pre-set it in the field could get tricky.
Not impossible, but not something easy enough to make a priority any time soon. If someone wants to submit a PR for it, we could consider it so long as it's a complete solution and not just using the main range as a shortcut.
