Visual feedback for dynamic-run step #496

Description

I recently attempted to use the codefresh-dynamic-run step for a release process that involves a variable number of environments (I realize it is incubating). My plan was to generate the dynamic-run yaml based on existing configuration and spawn N child pipelines to carry out the release process. Technically the step works, I was able to pass the required parameters to a generalized child pipeline, however the visual feedback makes the step very confusing for a broad user base. I have resorted to a more static approach to my process in order to preserve the visual feedback users will expect without searching through logs to determine a dependent pipeline.

I would request that:
-a node is created in the graph for each sub pipeline in the dynamic run step
-the node has a link to the child pipeline execution
-the node indicates the status of the child pipeline execution

I am guessing this may already be under consideration, but I just wanted to reiterate the importance of the dynamic-run step for more complex pipeline design and value of visual feedback for end users.
