The manual "Connect to Server" dialog is now substantially more sophisticated. Once an address has been entered, it starts a query using ServerLink and shows the results in an MPSelectionWidget. The game can then be joined by pressing Enter, clicking the dialog's Connect button, or clicking the MPSelectionWidget's join button.
The dialog takes advantage of an acceptance action to execute the join. This also works around the issue of not being able to change games when joining with the "connect" console command.
