[jira] [Created] (NIFI-4402) Add component location in Summary view

Pierre Villard created NIFI-4402:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Add component location in Summary view
                 Key: NIFI-4402
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4402
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core UI
            Reporter: Pierre Villard
            Priority: Minor


In the summary view, when there are hundreds of processors, it can be difficult to know what exact processor we are looking at in the table. The only options are:
- go to the processor location to know what processor it is (but then we are not on the summary view anymore)
- have a naming convention to uniquely name every component

To improve the user experience, the following could be implemented:
- add a column "Process Group" displaying the name of the parent process group containing the component
- when hovering the "Go to location" button change the tooltip to include the path of the component. Something like: "Go to /NiFi Flow/My RPG/My Processor"
