This action shows the log of that child step, regardless of whether
or not it failed. This is handy for debugging model errors after
testing, when you've already closed the algorithm window...!
When editing a model through the designer (and after having run
that model), you can now right click any child step in the model
and select "View Output Layers". This will add the output layers
from that step as new layers in the current QGIS project.
This action is available for ALL child algorithms in the model,
even if the model is not configured to use the outputs from those
children as model outputs.
This is designed as a helpful debugging action. If a user's model
fails (or gives unexpected results), they can then trace through
the model and view the outputs for suspected problematic steps.
It avoids the need to add temporary outputs to a model and re-run
to test.
Additionally, this action is always available after running the model,
EVEN if the model itself failed (eg because of a misconfigured
step later in the model).

These are a visual guide, allowing designers to create logical groups
of algorithms relating to a single task ("eg 'Prepare data')
The title and color of the group boxes can be customized
show the obtained values for all child algorithm outputs within the designer
canvas
This gives users better tools for debugging models - they can see exactly
what values were output by the child algorithms and flowed into other
parts of their model
This allows users to create comments attached to model components (inputs,
algorithms or outputs). Comments are shown linked to the associated component,
and can be freely moved around the model.
Only minimal shells of objects are left in Python now, the bare minimum
required because they call objects which depend on Python compatibility
for deprecated API calls...
