because it´s for the core administrators doesn´t mean you shouldn´t  
add functionality or "hack" the interface (I actually never  
understood that argument).

I´d also give it a thumbs down, but only because the admin-interface  
is hard to hack.
but ... we still do that all the time. of course, when we add  
functionality for editors or administrators, it should look like the  
admin-interface.
with the last couple of sites we did, we spent more time an "hacking"  
the admin-interface than doing the actual site.

in my view, it all comes down on what you´re trying to achieve.
