Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/mthenw/frontail/issues/152

As an extension of multiple file support it would be nice to be able to have the backend watch the filesystem and see when you files matching the specified masks appear in the filesystem and then adding them to the list of files to show.

This would be well complimented by the feature of files being in separate tabs and the ability to pause/resume tailing individual files.

+1 for tabs since loading many logfiles takes time when they get bigger. So performance could be increased in a great way when inactive tabs are not loading new content until being called again.

+1. At the moment it doesn't even pick up when new log files are created under the log dir.
