This is a theme layer issue, and as such is up to individual theme designers whether or not to provide separate admin styling. If there are things that can be done to make this easier (which might very well include documentation in the theme guide to download and use sections.module) then great. I don't believe it should be. I believe we need sensible defaults, that can be changed to suit the designer / site owner.
The simple fact of the matter is a large amount of the themes we have currently are UNUSABLE, and the simple fact of the matter is that these themes can not all be changed to work correctly. Would we rather have more themes, and lower the barrier of entry for new themers, or would we rather argue about semantics and personal feelings regarding seperately styled admin sections. What I would like to see, is we have a 'admin' => true added to the menu entries, and an 'is admin screen' checkbox in the menu.module that allows people to modify it if absolutely neccesary ( for individual pages ). The admin setting will then use themes/drupaldefault/admin, IF NO themes/mytheme/admin style is found. This means the designer can style it however he wants. Themes that want to theme the admin section, can do so .. and can even have differently styled admin sections. - -- Adrian Rossouw Drupal developer and Bryght Guy http://drupal.org | http://bryght.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) iD8DBQFCnEgcgegMqdGlkasRAg7XAJ40yhJANNVmqxc7JQOsuXEskI81wQCgtlFi lOsdxUhFQF9lh7NP5lL3tls= =CJoz -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
