users can now edit status details directly from the endpoint editor.
tags have been added to alerts to allow for better organization.
generic triggers can now specify a form to provide an enhanced user interface.
generic events will now have proper auto-completion based on analyzing recent event history
endpoints now have button to view any associated storage (expand from the list).
users can now view events for multiple devices by selecting them and choosing View event history from the Bulk menu in the endpoint list view.
