I have been using some 'quick links' on my clients sites for quite some time now. Many have reported it helps them get acquainted with the cms and they use them regularly.
Right now I have it hard coded into the cms, but it would be great if somthing similar was added to the core, or if there was a hook to launch a plugin before the pages are displayed (on 'Pages' page).
Below is a screenshot:

Those quick links look great...
I've added anew hook to the pages.php page called "pages-main"
just before the Pages list.

mikeh - how did you create the new tabs in the back end? Are these hardcoded as well? Do they have menu hooks?

I think most plugin use the
nav-tab hook and the
loadtab.php script from plugins by squareit - you can find it e.g. in the I18N Gallery plugin.
I assumed it would be added to GetSimple 3.1, but - as I just checked - it wasn't (yet?).
