Neat!

The Django admin is really great. I do wish there could be a bit more extensibility hook points to hook into existing stuff, but I know a loooot of projects that hack stuff into the admin despite that (I think in particular it's a bit futzy to have things like confirmation screens on custom actions).

I think the real power of Django comes from not only having the batteries included, but almost always having the right kind of extension points in terms of methods (or template overrides) that really give you ways to quickly insert the right kinds of customization for your project. The admin existing and working so well for so long is proof of that IMO

If you work with Django long enough, and at significant scale, you live long enough to b̶e̶c̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶v̶i̶l̶l̶a̶i̶n̶ make hacky extensions to the admin.

I am hoping this work makes it easier for people to start extending the admin in a normalized way.
