This seems pretty reasonable to me.
You could also add an unobtrusive button/link on the login page ("Log in
to ...") which will pop up a little dialog allowing them to choose
explicitly a section to log into (my online banking does something like
this and it seems to work well), with a little checkbox that says "make
this my default view."

where admins and filebrowsing users can set a preference for which UI
they want to be taken to when they login. This would also be a good
place where users could turn on timezone support.
