For reference, you can see all the open issues related to the web console

> Key: ARTEMIS-5470
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-5470
> Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Web Console
> Reporter: arne anka
> Priority: Major
>
> New console makes it very hard to gather all information at a glance – in the
> old one stuff was more compact and wasted less space. Additionally, elements
> were easier to identify and create custom CSS for. New framework (?) creates
> cumbersomly nested layouts with unfriendly identifiers that makes it hard to
> fix things locally.
> The "white area" where infoarmation happens wastes space to the left (those 4
> points do not need a bout 1/5 of the window width) und bottom (there's
> nothing, so why alot that much space there?).
> Artemis node:
> * ordering implausible – apparently, the default order is by the
> randomly/automatically assigned ID, but not the name users give and know.
> Order is not kept, nor can it be persistently configured anywhere
> * amount of rows is hard-coded to 10 rows - together with that rather
> wasteful row height it means that there's very little information actually
> available. Number of rows needs to be configurable, and persistent over
> future logins (and the row height should decrease, it's possible in
> `Runtime`, after all)
> Artmis JMX node:
> * tree on the left has far to much spacing, thus a lot of nodes disappear
> below, forcing one to scroll ... – funnily enough, the very same tree in
> `JMX` is much more sensibly spaced
> * which means the headers disappear – that's bad enough with the tree/search
> field, but it basically makes the right area menu row almost unsable once you
> scroll down. It simply is gone and you need to scroll back up – at the very
> least the header/menu needs to stay in place
> * tree nodes below adresses exist twice, for instance there's `DLQ` with a
> folder icon and right below `DLQ` again with a cube icon. `DLQ` with a folder
> has a non-functional menu bar, `DLQ` with the cube a functional one. This
> should be combined in just one node again
> * `Send Message` text area folds in mysterious ways/keeps lines when
> scrolling (not sure _what_ actually happens)
> * while I am happy the text now remains after sending, the folding/scrolling
> thing makes it difficult to edit, and if one pastes again, it's hard to see
> whether pasting succeeded or it's still the old text
> JMX node:
> * here again nodes are duplicated
> * header does not stay when scrolling, making it hard to use
> Runtime node:
> * `System properties` pane is limited to _20_ rows (as opposed to the 10
> elsewhere), needs to be configurable
> * same goes for `Threads` pane
