[pve-devel] [PATCH manager v2 1/2] ui: tasks: add actioncolumn to open task

[Aaron Lauterer]

Many (new) users don't realize that the task view can be used to open
the task details.
By adding a small action column we can have a button to open the task as
well, next to double clicking it.

Since the record is fetched quite differently than in the regular
handler, and we don't necessarily have a selection on the right row at
this point, I opted to create the window right in the dedicated handler.

The other sensible approach would be to factor out the window opening
from `run_task_viewer` into a new function. But since that function
would just open the window I decided against it.

Not sure if we want the above explanation in the commit msg. If so, feel
free to put it there when applying the patch.

Regarding the icon: I went with the chevron-right as this is what we use
in the UI of the backup server. Alternatively the `fa-eye` might also be
fitting.

change since v1:
* use the `rec` parameter directly instead of fetching if from the grid
store
