Delete job link too close to Show job?

#11

The two text links on the /jobs/list page are very close together - show and delete. It seems like it might be too easy to hit the delete link by mistake. I didnt try it but I assume there's a dialog box to go through before the job is really deleted so practically its probably OK. That being said, from a useability perspective Show should be really easy to hit as its the most likely option for someone to choose, Delete should be harder as its less likely to occur and its consequences more severe.

Perhaps put the Show link as a button or image on the left hand side of the job row, leave the delete link on the right, maybe make it a trash can icon to make it a bit smaller?

    I've moved the "show" links for anything that has a show option to the name or ID of that item.

    When the job is finished, the download link will appear next to the delete link, but it will be bolded.

    There is also a javascript check asking if you want to delete the file.
