Sorry, I think there is some miscellaneous understanding.

These exact things were implemented.

You wrote:

A. I implemented that like next:
- If a PC didn't was the "Master" and a user hit "OK",
then the PC becomes the Master.
- If a PC already was the "Master" and a user hit "OK",
then there is not any change.

Also above action will take place *only*
if user change that dropdown like you asked:

B. I implemented that like next:
Kaboodle stores the selected dropdown when it opens that tab.
After a user hit Okay, then it compares selected dropdown and it initialized
index.
If these values are identical, then Kaboodle don't make any change.
If the user clicks Remote Networks tab, then Kaboodle don't make any change
also.

C. About listing of the dropdown.
Kaboodle lists all PC's, which runs Kaboodle it the LAN.
If there is the Kaboodle, which is the Master,
then that device will be selected in the dropdown.
If there are several Masters, then the first (in lexicographically ordered)
Master device will be selected in the dropdown.
If there is not any Master, then the first (in lexicographically ordered)
Kaboodle device will be selected in the dropdown.

I cannot understand what of my implementations #A-#C are invalid.

That checkbox isn't always checked.
It is checked if a PC is the Master.
It is unchecked if the PC isn't the Master.
So a user can see if the PC is the Master or not.
I implemented what you asked:
- Above checkbox is unchecked always.
(So a user *cannot* see if the PC is the Master or not.)
- If a PC didn't was the "Master" and a user hit "OK",
then the PC becomes the Master.
- If a PC already was the "Master" and a user hit "OK",
then there is not any change.
So the user can set a PC as the Master, but cannot set it as Non-Master.
