Description
From https://github.com/piwik/piwik/issues/7239#issuecomment-139045034
When pressing "refresh" I think it would also be useful if the new log lines that appear after a refresh were highlighted in some way to differentiate from the old ones. (use case would be, eg, debugging loginldap: 1) open log viewer in new tab, 2) try to login w/ LDAP login, 3) refresh log viewer and see new logs).

Research direction
Start by reproducing the LogViewer refresh flow: open the log viewer, generate new log activity, refresh, and compare the newly visible lines with existing ones. Trace the refresh behavior in the plugin and define the work as making post-refresh log lines visibly distinct while preserving the existing viewer behavior.
