In your idea/plans, can the list of what is in the dashboard be edited by the
library ? will it be hardcoded ? modular system ? Libraries will be highly
interested by this feature, for sure. But i'm also sure that each of them will
ask for different views

A suggestion: we (well, you, if you code it ;-) ) : dashboard could retrieve
datas to display from saved reports. Something like :
table dashboard =
dashboardid
report_id
position (the position in dashboard)

Then you run the results, and display them in the dashboard.
Managing the dashboard will mean for the libraries defining reports to run, and
attaching them to the dashboard. We could provide some standard/basic/usual
reports during installation.


Other suggestion : this kind of dashboard, appearing on homepage, can be highly
CPU consuming for large databases. I strongly suggest to cache the result in a
file and update the dashboard only once every night. Or remove it from the
homepage to have a dashboard specific one, but that's not your goal, and I
agree the dashboard on homepage is an amazing idea)
