Having the filter in a popup box might have the advantage of saving some space on the screen. But on the other side your top variant shows the filter settings together with the resulting list. So i like the top variant most.
Here is another comparison based on your top variant which saves one line of space: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=41449 It would be awesome if someone from the blender development team could comment on this and allow to get something done here. Maybe the layout is wrong but at least it would be just cool if we could get the functionality.
