The jobs details is collapsed by default. When expanding, the middle-alignment CSS becomes visible.

For any list of items, middle-aligning the content reduces overview and readability. For anything spanning more than a page, it becomes very confusing, or even infeasible to even locate the plugin name, the other metadata, and the details collapse control.

My top "Number of Jobs" count is above 2,000. When I expand the jobs, the page becomes unusable, the plugin unidentifiable, the details uncollapsible. Scrolling through the page to find the middle of the expand across many scroll pages is awful usability.

By top-aligning the labels and control the page remains usable, the long expand page-usage-recoverable.

Testing done

I do not have a local environment. I have not tested the changes at runtime, rendered through this template source.

I modified the DOM on my productive Jenkins via browser dev tools, where these declaration changes were sufficient.
