It is just in the UI. Rationale for this was provided by a situation where
several thousand tests were failing for the same reason, producing a huge
log file, and the dashboard was running out of memory trying to parse it.

The link at the bottom is not there yet, but surely is a good idea. I would
actually put it inside the message that says that the file was too long. It
would be even nicer if we displayed the first 100 Kb of the file, and had a
"See more" link at the end, that would serve the whole thing as a text
file, without parsing.

Send patches! :)
