Comment (by carljm):
Yes, the 404 idea would require more work, and would have some negative
consequences.
I hope that the redirect to login in the admin is already unconditional
for any url under admin/ and doesn't currently reveal information about
the available admin urls. Need to check that.
I think the best resolution for this bug is probably some ux hint on the
admin login screen for a user who is already authenticated, as mentioned
in the ticket description. I may be missing something, but I don't see how
that would be a problem or reveal anything that shouldn't be revealed.
