 I think it would be interesting for custom applications to register links
 in various places in the admin area.

 The typical example would be the admindocs module, instead of hardcoding
 it in the admin template, we could have something like

 {{{
 #!python
 admin.register_link(title=_('Documentation'), url=reverse('...')
 location='header_right', staff_only=True))
 }}}

 And a specific code in the template like :

 {{{
 {% for link in admin.links.header_right %}
 <a href="{{ link.url }}">{{ link.title }}</a>
 {% endfor %}
 }}}

 We could also add other locations (Like a new pane in the admin frontpage,
 etc.)

 So any application could easily add its own links.

 Currently, as far I a know, the only way to do this is to override the
 admin templates.
