I would like us to provide an instant filter/switch at the top of the "Status report" page at admin/reports/status, so that when viewed by various roles/personas, entries can be filtered to their respective field/focus/role/task-at-hand. Looking at the current list of options, I am suggesting the following categories:
- Security & performance:
- Access to update.php
- Backdrop CMS update notifications
- Backdrop CMS update status
- Cron maintenance tasks
- File system
- Node Access Permissions
- PHP memory limit
- Trusted Host Settings
- Developer information:
- Backdrop CMS (version)
- MySQL Database (version)
- MySQL Database 4-byte UTF-8 support
- Database updates
- jQuery
- PHP (version)
- PHP extensions
- PHP register globals
- Display error messages
- Web server (version)
- GD library rotate and desaturate effects
- Unicode library
- Miscellaneous (or something else, like "Generic" or "Features")
- Telemetry
- Upload progress
Perhaps we could make this work in a tag-based manner, so that multiple categories can be assigned to each entry. That would allow showing certain entries in multiple filters (for more than one persona).
