      We want to display the hudson.model.CauseAction "short description" on the UI in Blue Ocean. However, the BranchEventCause has a pretty generic description that isn't meaningful to the user.

      Could we have a better cause description for the branch events?

      "Pull Request opened by i386" etc ?

      Example of current cause action as reported to Blue Ocean

      {
      "_class": "hudson.model.CauseAction",
      "_links": {
        "self": {
          "_class": "io.jenkins.blueocean.rest.hal.Link",
          "href": "/blue/rest/organizations/jenkins/pipelines/blueocean/branches/master/runs/655/cause/"
        }
      },
      "causes": [
        {
          "_class": "jenkins.branch.BranchEventCause",
          "shortDescription": "Branch event"
        }
      ],
      "urlName": "cause"
}
