Visually indicate which item in the Websites filter is the default

When an organization is multi-site, they are required to designate one of the websites as the default. The default website, when selected, will display not only the stories that have been properly circulated to it directly, but will also show stories that are un-circulated.


This conjoining of two different kinds of stories in the Stories list view causes confusion on behalf of editors, who raise tickets about stories being "circulated" to the wrong website, when the default website is NOT a dummy website.


For instance, if my organization puts out content in German and Spanish and the websites are "Germany" and "Spain", and the "Germany" website is the default, then a new story that has been created in Spanish but not yet circulated will show up in the list of "Germany" content, causing confusion and delay.


If the "Germany" website had some indication showing, perhaps an asterisk "Germany*" then there would be something to show that there was something extra going on with that website and that meaning could be trained into the editors.
