Description
A user should have a way of accessing the Workflow Snippet Generator without having to create a job. At least, it would be useful to be able to link to a functional Workflow Snippet Generator. Since the available snippets may vary depending on the plugins installed, this is something that needs an active Jenkins instance. Perhaps the scripts could be stored in a shared location that could later be accessed by jobs.

added a comment - Could someone associated with this bug give the new url path to get to the snippet generator? Or path through the front page UI to get there?
With this change in, I can't seem to find the snippet generator anywhere – now that its been removed from the new job page, should it be somewhere else now?

gregcovertsmith : other path to access it, from a 'pipeline job', there's a new item on the 'menu' on the top left (under new item, people,build history etc.) called 'Pipeline Syntax'.

added a comment - Thanks guys - I was able to find the new link.
I did open a new related bug to this one, as the links are only shown to users who have permissions to edit the configuration of the project. I believe as they are doc references, they should be available to read users of the project.

I hit the same issue as squalou. It's nice to have the snippet generator outside of a configuration page, but having it next to the actual configuration box was much more convenient to use. Is there any reason it can't be at both locations?
