Right, the admin system is seriously lacking in a number of respects. That's
definitely one of them. There are lots of others. 

Here's my long-term vision for how administration should work: There should
be a special namespace provider that would provide a namespace (maybe called
FlexMetaWiki or FlexWikiConfiguration) that would expose a series of topics.
These topics would have properties that would control the configuration of
the wiki. For example, there might be a topic called WikiConfiguration that
would have a comma-delimited property that would list all the namespaces.
Another property would indicate which one was default. You get the idea. 

So that's the long-term vision: use the wiki to configure the wiki. The best
part is that, done right, it solves the problem of having to maintain
configuration in two places for a web farm-based wiki, as you could just
shove it in Sql Server like any other namespace. 

That said, I have no plans whatsoever to implement this for 2.0. We already
know my propensity for feature creep, so I've firmly pushed this out of
scope. 

I can probably hack together Delete Namespace and Set Default Namespace
functionality, but honestly, I don't think I'm going to. It's not that I
don't want to. It's that for personal reasons I need to refrain from adding
features. I've been working on FlexWiki 2.0 for almost two years now, and
anything that takes me away from getting it out the door it is nearly
physically painful. If it existed before and I had broken it, different
story: I'm committed to fixing things that I break that people miss.
