Heh, it was deployed for testing purposes and is now just committed. I
also considered the nginx directory index but I feel like the current
approach gives us more flexibility.

Josselin did add the possibility to consult and edit the log files
before creating the crash dump.

Also implemented by Josselin.

Closing this one,

Thanks,
