This version finally brings something you can sink your teeth into, so to speak. I’m talking about the new taxonomy drill-down widget:
As you might notice from the screenshot, it works with hierarchical taxonomies too and lets you do queries like this:
?ingredients=flour+sugar&flavour=sweet
I’m planning on applying as a GSoC 2010 volunteer for WordPress. This is a working draft of my proposal.
One of the key features missing from the list-type administration screens is the ability to view items sorted by a certain column. For example, on the posts screen, you should be able to view posts sorted by comment count etc.
