Normally when I expand a job in the client, tasks appear in order. However, if the job jailed on a particular task, that task shows first. I have to click the order column header to re-sort back in sequential order. I just noticed this activity beginning with 9.8.5.
The task status icon effectively gives visual indication which task failed. By not having them in order I can't quickly glance to see what tasks were completed and which were not executed due to the job stop.
