      1. Open Server view -> New -> Server
      2. Select a server type (e.g. AS7.1) and click Next
      3. You're now on JBoss Runtime Window
      4. Click Download and install... and proceed to download the runtime
      5. When the runtime has been downloaded, it is automatically added and the window closes. You're now back on JBoss Runtime Window.
      6. Now what? The server has been added, but the user cannot know this and thinks he still needs to add the server directory

      With JBIDE-6116 (adding download button when creating a server) and then JBIDE-12583 to unify this with the similar widget in runtime detection preferences window, there is now a strange behavior occurring.

      When you decide to download the runtime during "New server" dialog, after it has been downloaded the server will be added automatically but the dialog is not closed, i.e. it is still waiting for you to enter a location for the server. This is confusing.
