This makes it very difficult to tell at a glance whether the most recent DAG run completed successfully. I often have to enter tree view and zoom out to learn if a given DAG run failed. My intuition is that most Airflow users do not care about failed tasks from the not recent past and the default behavior should be to hide these.\r\n\r\n**Proposal**\r\nThe statuses column should only represent the statuses of tasks in all _currently active_ DAG runs. If no DAG is currently active, it should represent the _most recent_ DAG run. This way the user can quickly scan the DAGs homepage to find whether the most recent DAG run completed successfully.\r\n\r\nI intend to have a PR out for this soon. Posting here first for feedback."}}
