Summary: Improve navigation and help for admin pages
Initial Comment:
I move the following post from the mailing list here:

navigational bar on all

directly to the most
> important administrative pages.
We could do some ad hoc improvements for the current
release. In the longer
term, we should have toolbars and drop-down menus,
more in the style of
other
standard applications, and we should have some new
functions in Admin.mpl to
support the creation of such widgets, rather than the
current piecemeal
approach.

That is an excellent idea, which I had also thought of
implementing. There
should again be some development of Admin.mpl to
support it, but that should
not be too much work. Nonetheless, it will probably
need to wait for the
next release.
