Deleting it destroys it completely rather than clearing the log as I expected it to. I had an ongoing exception that wasn't causing the log to be recreated after I hit delete. The nav is straight forward, but it isn't very friendly. When the log starts with the first entry rather than the newest entry, with no way to jump to the end, that isn't very friendly.
