[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-21722) UX for "problem was found..." is unfortunate when there are mulitple errors and destinations

Marcel Bruch commented on JBIDE-21722:
--------------------------------------

> 1) would be nice to add same comment to all (or at least when same event)

IMO this would be an unexpected behavior: comments may differ depending on who receives the error report. It would also not be transparent for a user that entering a comment to a single event would be copied into other reports as well. 

If this should be implemented, we'd need to group events by their causing status (2-level tree "status"--> report-1, report-2).Then if a user comments on the  root status object those comments can be copied into the children. But I'm not sure whether the additional level in the tree viewer would rather confuse users...

2) can't see who is requesting error reports besides the icon.
The "details " section names the endpoint. Which other locations do you have in mind? Multiline Text widgets (on Mac) do not support "setMessage". We could implement a pseudo message like "This report goes to XYZ" which will be shown as long as the user does not provide comments. Other suggestions?

> Running Mars.2 with our jbosstools aeri discovery mechanism enabled and generating 4 errors in a row resulted in a dialog popping up with 8 events and its hard to see what user is meant to do and what he can do.
> A few issues:
> 1) comment field seem to be just for the selected event - would be nice to add same comment to all (or at least when same event)
> 2) can't see who is requesting error reports besides the icon.
