Application will display many records, Ideally there should be no records

One can find the reason for this behaviour in the file administrator/components/com_installer/models/manage.php.

In the function getListQuery() lines 326-329 the folder filter is only applied if the type filter has specific values (namely 'plugin', 'library', '').

        if ($group != '' && in_array($type, array('plugin', 'library', '')))
        {
            $query->where('folder=' . $this->_db->quote($group == '*' ? '' : $group));
        }

So, if the type filter is set to 'component' the folder filter is not applied, no matter what is set there.
For me, this behavior is at least unexpected. I'm sure, the one who wrote that code has a different opinion.

It would be easy to change that behaviour by changing the code to

        if ($group != '' )
        {
            $query->where('folder=' . $this->_db->quote($group == '*' ? '' : $group));
        }

Then, regarding to your example filter setting (namely 'component', 'captcha'), no records would be listed.
I'll do a pull request if this solution will be supported.
