Description

Previous behavior:

"Download the full log" button caused the full job log to appear in the browser window.

Current behavior:

"Download the full log" button results in a file download, which (when it's finished) the user can then open with an external application.
  • This means more waiting and clicking before the text appears, and clutters the download directory with log files the user never wanted to save locally.
  • Generally, these downloaded logs are not formatted that a normal text editor can view it nicely.

Desired behavior:

"View the full log" button displays the log text in the browser window.

(If there is also a "Download" link too, that's harmless -- but "view" is more important, and the browser has a "save as" feature, and in that sense a "view" button covers both "view" and "download" functionality.)
