Not silly. just look at wordpress! There are hundreds of potential sites where editing, adding, moderating content is considered *administration*. And believe it or not, the node forms are often even harder to theme right, then the admin/ pages, esp on fancy layouts.
Actually, this is one of Drupal's biggest strengths. I have a client that had Wordpress but to manage content you had to go into admin, find the article, then edit it. But it is *far* easier to traverse your site logged in, goto the page you want and edit it. 10 to 1, it is far easier for your client to find the page they want to edit on the website visually then it is to search for it.
Now, however, should it be themed differently? Entirely different, but I do agree, admin/ is really the admin area. When you edit a node, I think it can be more visually appealing and have some sort of 'admin border' or whatever you may have it, to make things stand out a bit more. As to what, well as we all say, code is gold, so I'll have something soon.
Well, even if you are completely right, and I am utterly wrong. The point I tried to stress is that we should *give people the power to choose for themselves*. If drupal ships with a hardcoded admin theme and area, the first thing we will here a dozn times is "how can I make page foo/bar look like the onse in admin?" -- PGP ber@webschuur.com http://www.webschuur.com/sites/webschuur.com/files/ber_webschuur.asc PGP berkessels@gmx.net http://www.webschuur.com/sites/webschuur.com/files/ber_gmx.asc
