If this is a feature without any real application in Koha yet, perhaps we
shouldn't add it to the menu system at all?

Perhaps. However, I think introducing a new interface pattern requires a
certain amount of commitment to making that change consistently throughout the
interface. For example, using jEditable for the Quote of the Day feature was an
interesting proof of concept, but it went nowhere after that. Introducing the
use of Font Awesome was a good improvement, but it took a lot of buy-in and
work to make it consistent.

I think that's fine, especially if we take advantage of the opportunity to
display thorough information to the user. As I said above, I think making the
change requires /some/ commitment to implementing the same change throughout
the staff client.
