I got tired of going through the edit page to get to the view after
editing a controller so I modified admin/controllers/default.py and
admin/view/default/edit.html as shown below. The changes cause an
extra line of links to the views associated with the controller to
appear at the top of the page just above the 'exposes' line. Not
heavily tested yet, but it seems to be working pretty well, so I
thought I'd share it. No warranties and YMMV, as always :-)
Cheers,
Mike
