How to remember channel aliases ?

Running smart --gui on SuSE 10.0. A new version of wine showed
up in the SuSE-supplied depositories. I had already upgraded
wine from the wine depository, so I wanted to EXCLUDE the
SuSE-supplied wine from the smart 'Upgrade All Packages".
Went to Edit -> Priorities -> New. It asked me to type in
the Channel Alias. Well, I didn't remember what the channel
alias name was (especially since the install of smart on SuSE
*insists* on supplying these channel file contents, rather than
letting me fill them in the way I like) !!!
Let me suggest that Edit -> Priorities -> New provide a drop-
down list of the recognized channels, so that the user may
select from the list, rather than having to type it in himself.
