No. I didn't need it until now - and since nobody else was looking into this it
seems that others don't need this too.

Anyway, the current admin interface is a bit messy. I'm going to change this.
I'm trying to use ozone's native proxy/impl communication features for admin
too. I will move current admin functions into the new AdminImpl class and add
XML backup/restore (this was the reason for me to work on the admin again) and
change the admin front end. Afterwards changing/improving admin interface will
be very easy. So its its up to you then to implement a good authentication
scheme or whatever features you expect from ozones admin interface ;)

If anybody is interested in reviewing the new admin interface or wants to
help with the design or whatever I can make a branch in the CVS.
