Bug Description

I'm the administrator of rather a lot of teams. The structural subscription recipient picker (from e.g. DistributionSourcePackage:+subscribe) therefore offers me a huge list under "One of the teams you administer". This list has two flaws:

 * It is unsorted, so in practice I have to scroll through the whole list trying to find the one I want.
 * It only shows the team's displayname; in this context perhaps it would be helpful if it could use Person.unique_displayname, to make it easier to tell the difference between teams with similar displaynames. (I mention this here because if we did this then it would also make it reasonable to sort the list by name rather than displayname, which I think might be better.)

Feels much better to me, at least. Let's see if anyone else complains. :-)
