Hello,

are there any plans to improve the default Django admin theme?
I'm aware of projects like Grapelli, that the admin is intended to be 
customized by the developers and that the default theme is nice, clean and 
usable but the default theme could be improved a lot, from my perspective.
I started thinking about this while i was browsing google analytics and the 
default django admin and i really like the analytics interface:

- nice clear background
- clear space around content and good black/white font contrasting
- consistent and minimal color palette
- menus on the right side which allow the content to expand indefinitely if 
required to the right

and so on ...

Of course this is all based on my personal opinion and also that:

- grappelli attaches a number of dependencies to the project, which may lock 
the project in regard to django and other libraries versions
- customizing the admin interface requires maintenance in regard of keeping 
track of changes brought by new django versions, which isn't that difficult 
it's one more thing a developer has to keep track of, especially for single 
developer's managing projects
- having an improved and slicker interface by default would improve the 
commercial aspect, a lot
