Bug Description
When enabling printer browsing on the local network and adding a new printer, I can see a list of available printers, with their IP address. A reverse lookup should be attempted on these IP addresses since many sysadmin leave this as the only clue to determine the printer name.

Any news on this? Current look of the network printer selection dialog mostly sucks for that reason.
