We are currently working on a brand new cherokee-admin. As you could expect 
this new application will fix many of the internal issues in the current 
cherokee-admin.

Even though the first version of the new cherokee-admin won't probably support 
the role-based management, it's a feature that will shipped sooner than later.

The symbolic links detection is implemented on the "List & Send" handler. 
Actually, it is the first time I think it'd be useful outside that context.

Could you please log a RFE for it, please?
