It would help me immensely if there were a “Used on active theme” filter in the pulldown filter on the components admin page at `/admin/config/customize/components`. This would make it easier to troubleshoot what is going on with active themes, when you have alot of inactive themes.

This is what it looks like currently here on meta:

A related UI issue I had with this interface is that the filter is reset to All when you click through to a component and return to the list. This adds extra clicks when working through the list of components that are in use.
