IMHO it is a bad idea for admin's and user's to be using separate  
interfaces.  Why? Because admins wont really know what annoys users  
when they have a separate means of getting at the same data.  In  
other words, admins wont be motivated to improve the user experience,  
because they simply do not share the same "experience".  In other  
words, this needs to be fixed in a future release.  Not sure how.   
But fundamentally I'd like to see web pages to different information  
open up in a far more snappy way than it does now.
