Presto: Show all queries by default in Web UI

[findepi]

Currently, Web UI shows failed queries by default.
I think it's counter-intuitive -- since user did not select any filters, they should see all information.
That also provides worse experience -- it's likely there was some failed query on a cluster, and it's going to be showed at the top to everyone.

Show all queries by default.

The current behavior is intentional. In a busy cluster, you will have lots of successful queries, most of them boring and not useful to look at. The failures are the important thing to look at.

I think the right behavior depends on the role of the user. For an admin, the current behavior makes sense. For an end user, they likely want to see all their queries.

Since this would be changing a long-standing behavior, let’s implement sticky button selections with a cookie. Then we can default to everything shown but add minimal friction for administrators used to the current behavior.

I understand that the current behavior is best for experienced users / admins.

It is not ideal for first hand experience, though.

Sounds like a plan. 👍
