Build, contrib, and code all looks good. I was able to test it in the UI and
all seemed good, however, the provenance menu was also provided for processing
groups, which of do not have provenance events. If there was some search that
would span all nested components, I could see the value, but this should likely
be removed from the context menu in the interim. Otherwise, looks great and is
a tremendous time saver.

> In terms of making provenance more accessible, it would be nice to have a
> provenance search via the processor context menu which auto populates the
> provenance with the processor ID. Typically when I want evaluate how a
> processor is behaving, I have to select configure, copy ID, hit provenance,
> paste the component ID.
> In a related fashion, providing the functionality of the search of main
> workflow in the component ID field of the provenance dialog to discover
> component ID could also prove to be useful.
> Not sure which of these makes sense, is feasible, or is actually an improved
> user experience, but each feels like it could expedite the process.
