--- Comment #47 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
I like the concept of having a cataloguing start page to get our modules closer
in terms of a standard UI.

I think the problem I see here is that we need to put in more work to fix the
discrepancies caused by moving tools to cataloguing (where they rightly
belong). At the moment if you click on those links the breadcrumbs, URL and
sidebar switch to tools. Also: the permissions are in tools.

I feel like we should do more steps in moving these tools.
* Sidebar will be fixed by bug 31417.
* Breadcrumbs could be fixed after.
* URLs - I am not completely sure about moving the files thb. but something to
think about.

I have created 2 follow-ups for you to check and a couple of linked bugs with
suggestions.

And I have one more thing I'd like to see "fixed" before we push this as a
first step in restructuring:

The extra click for catalogers.

At the moment, using the split button you an get right into the framework you
want. We remove this option. And I think that will make people grumpy.

* Default takes a while to load compared with the smaller frameworks.
* It's an extra click to switch.
* Switching frameworks when using default values can be problmatic. A default
once added to a field, doesn't update when switching frameworks (say s for
serials in LDR was added). 

Being able to choose the framework right away is important I think.
