I can give you manager role on z3ext.net so you can look closely on
management interface.

no. as i understand plone.* is UI related code for plone? i use
completely different patterns for UI building.

yes, why not. for example z3ext.controlpanel powerful and easy to use configuration system

z3ext.net is default skin without customization

recently i made http://www.alteringthefuture.com/ for my firend,
actually he did this. this site created only with TTW customization.
