Control Panel navigation

When doing a lot of work within the Control Panel (creating categories, customizations, etc.) it can be cumbersome navigating to various parts of the Control Panel.

For example, I go to Control Panel and choose the Customize option. Now I'm at the co-brand customization page, that's all good so far. But now when I'm done, I can't just jump right back to the Control Panel. I have to click the Your Photos link at the top and then click the Control Panel link to get back again. If I try to use the Back button in the browser, I get a page expired message.

How about just a quick link back to the Control Panel home from within each of the Control Panel's sub-areas?

    Yeah, it is needed.

    I second this request. It is not often that after making some change from the control panel, you are left in a screen that has no navigation to anywhere other than "Your Photos" at the top of the screen. Not a real high priority because it only hits me, not my viewers, but still something that could be improved fairly easily.

    We are investigating some new changes that may help with this.
