Description

**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like**

Especially for new users benefit, the order of the available choices should represent a "conservative" workflow, while leaving power user to skip directly to the desired step.

**Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:**

On the devices dashboard, instead of "Upload - Edit - ShowLogs - Validate", I suggest "Edit -> Validate -> Upload -> ShowLogs".
And below the editor window, instead of "Save - Upload - Close" I suggest "Save -> Validate -> Upload -> Close".
Just my 2 cents.
Piero
