Bug #11272

bulk delete of hosts redirect to tasks progress page
Description
As a user, when I delete multiple hosts, I'm redirected to a foreman-tasks show page. I was expecting to get back to the host list, or maybe a customized view for deleting hosts.
on top of that, the page does not auto reloads, which makes the user stare at a progress bar that never update it self.
further, i had a failure in one host deleting task (the compute resource was not reachable) in either case, it was very challenging to find the root cause of failure, and imho that should made more visible instead of searching though the sub tasks.

I think there are two issues here:
1) Whether or not we should be redirecting to the tasks page for all initiated tasks.
2) Whether the task details is sufficient for diagnosing an issue
For #1, we have either defaulted to sending the user to the task details page when kicking off an action that includes a task or embedded the task details within the current page such as if you go initiate a sync from the repository details page. Would the latter behavior be more in line with what you expect?
For #2, I think that might need to be an RFE filed against foreman_tasks.
