I have added an 'Alternate' to the 'Alternate' proposal for how to
provide access to the home directory browsing UI:
For mock-up, see:

WorkflowsZeroDotSix#AlternateAlternate
Just to recap:
Proposal #1: Provide access to home directory browser from the
Settings panel. (I believe this proposal is in addition to the
proposals below, as in, it's not mutually exclusive with the options
below.
Proposal #2: Dubbed, the 'Alternate proposal' is to place checkboxes
underneath the login area to Login to 3 different UIs: Casual
Collaborator UI, Admin UI, Home directory browsing UI.
Proposal #3: Alternate to the 'Alternate proposal': Add links off to
the side (upper right hand corner) to login as an admin or login to
browse your home directory.
Again, neither Proposal 2 or 3 precludes providing access for
traversing the different UIs after logging in. They simply allow
users to access the admin and home directory browsing UIs without
having to first go through the end-user UI.

2. In addition to the subdomains, I propose we also keep the
advance link within the settings dialog to allow users to
administer their own collection. This 'advance' link will open the
admin interface in a separate browser window thus providing a
direct connection between the calendar UI and home collection.
Issues with subdomains have been discussed later in the thread.
That issue aside, I think that it is useful to continue to provide
access to the home collection browser if for no other reason that
it can be a helpful tool for debugging end user issues.
