title: Why does IntelliJ IDEA have the 'show baloon' functionality?
body: <p>There is this 'show balloon' link you can click on in the Event Log. Just why does it exists? Does the balloon ever contain more information than the log?</p>
  
  <p>Just an illustration (the event here was a git checkout), the link is not 'more' or anything, just 'show balloon':</p>

  <p>May not be the most critical question out there, but just curious.</p>
