Title:
  Log File Viewer is difficult to interpret - needs different layout

Status in “gnome-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The Log File Viewer displays cryptic abbreviations followed by an
  equals sign to present items in the log. People find this layout
  difficult to read and interpret. It's not an efficient way to present
  the information. A more human friendly layout is possible. For
  example, a Nautilus like "List" or "Details" view with headers.
  Information would list under its corresponding header and accordingly
  be easily found and interpreted.

  The current layout & manner of presenting log information should be
  changed to a more "human friendly" presentation.
