It's technically a good idea not to interfere as much as possible and 
therefore put things on this traversal namespace. However, I think from 
a practical perspective, it would be a bit more useful if grokui.admin 
simply put all its views on a special layer, say, IGrokAdminLayer. Thi 
layer would be part of the Grok default skin, but you could easily opt 
out of it and with one big bang, the whole admin UI was disabled (very 
useful for production), but you could still get at it manually, e.g. by 
using the ++skin++ traverser (e.g. when you're trying to debug a running 
instance).

What do you think?
