Dashboards are not available in the SelfService UI.
It's definitely possible to extend RT to show them, but there are a
lot of corner cases.

If you tell the list what you were hoping to show your unprivileged
users with the dashboards you might get simpler suggestions.

The dashboards show a summary of unresolved and resolved tickets for a 
particular queue. We have separate dashboards for separate queues. 

There is nothing in particular that we wish to hide - I think allowing everyone 
to be privileged by default would be OK for us unless someone convinces me 
otherwise.

Privileged only means another interface. With groups you can restrict them so 
that they can only do and see what you want.
