Hi, I'm working with Mapbender for 3 years now and I never customized my own admin gui. And I think it's the same for the most part of the user community. So in my opinion it would be a good simplification to have these static admin Guis. But we should remember to have any possibility to configure these guis in some way as there could be the case a user is not authorized to see and use all parts of the administration. So I don't know which solutions we could find for that (a conf file??). Any suggestions or other opinions?
