expanded logbook view

Do you mean that instead of listing all the entries in the logbook in the middle column, we would show all entries chronologically in the right column? Hmm... not sure if that would be reasonable, unless the logbook was pretty small. For a large logbook, it might get pretty heavy for the frontend to render, and we'd have to load it incrementally anyway I think. Consider that a logbook that has been in use by dozens of people for keeping track of operations for a few years could contain thousands of entries.

Maybe we could use the brand new HTML export feature though! Let's say we basically make it possible to open a HTML export of the entire logbook in a new tab, maybe with some extra JS magic to load images on demand. It could still be quite a heavy operation though.

Otherwise, I think the search function should be improved if it doesn't help you find your stuff.

okay, I agree that it is a bad idea for large logbooks.
So maybe it is better to put more effort in improving the search functions.
