I think missing static files on the left menu will be perceived like an 
UI/UX oversight.

Just to note, I overcome this by:
- using a separate browser tab for css and keeping it open all the time
- or, opening the css file first and then opening other editor tabs next to 
it (the only way to get it into an internal editor tab).

Also, Ctrl-S doesn't work for me when editing css (2.6.0-dev, works for 
views, etc.), but I didn't have time to look into it. This is more 
annoying, as it results in scrolling to save and therefore losing the 
position within the css file.

Anyway, isn't having that much static files to render the admin inoperable 
a border case? Assuming these would be media files, could the static/css 
directory be included for the left menu anyway?

IMHO, when using web2py to code web pages, css gets edited as often as any 
other controller, module or view, if not more. Come to think of it, if not 
more, than certainly more often. Css tends to get build up as the coding 
progresses, hence a coder returns to it often.

Ales
