I am the author of the plugin.

This view is tailor made to view log files. Personally I didn't like using the Kibana table-views to view log files. Features like 1) Filter logs files from particular machine 2) Live tail 3) Seek to any time in log file (e.g. you can enter 'last friday' in seek window) 4) filter by program/app

makes logtrail suitable for viewing and debugging log files.

Moreover I always wanted a interface like this in Kibana to view all my log files in a single view :)
