Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's always a hassle having to log into ssh, find the logs folder, figure out which host number is the correct file and then tail -f it.

Describe the solution you'd like
A new button in the host context menu that allows viewing a live feed of the _access and _error log files for that host in my web browser

Describe alternatives you've considered
