Hi @alexjustesen,

I have a question: will this replace the UI in the future, or will it be added as an additional option?

Personally, I prefer working with the UI, as it allows me to avoid tinkering with tools like Grafana.

First release it'll be completely separate but I've had the idea of test nodes and this puts a foundation in place for that (eventually).

There's no good way for me to implement that yet. I'm keeping an eye on it though.
