Admin dashboard seems good for new admins, but less useful for more expierenced admins, and to be frank, other than the stats not really helpful to me personally. Couple of gripes with it:

1.) On Bleach Wiki we have a black theme, but the dashboard only displays in white & forces the recent changes page to show in white too.

2.) But more important it hides the drop-down navigation menus on all special pages, which is incredibly annoying and inconvenient. There is already a link to it appearing on the toolbar, apparently be default. We dont need that header at the top hiding the navigation.

3.) Why is it piggybacking on the RC page, surely it ought to have its own page?

4.) It'd like to be able to turn it on/off via preferences if it is going to stay the way it is.

5.) It is nice to see the stats, and great that they can be collapsed so the full width is still useable on RC. But the stats can be gotten through the special pages anyway. I was wondering if there are any plans to put more modules in that colapsable column under the stats (chat module would be useful)
