This functionality already exists to add watchers. Should be easy to also apply to assignee?

1. Filter implemented in 'Watchers' uses AJAX requests to fetch filtered results which is kinda slow. The one in example filters values on the client side which is much faster.
2. The 'Watchers' filter is ugly and clumsy. There already are dropdown lists for users in the UI, we should use them.
3. This is needed not for assignee only, but for every field with type = 'user'

Found a much better soultion than the one I initially proposed: https://github.com/selectize/selectize.js
