This is a proposal for a new Administration UI
having vertical tabs for
grouping instead of the current select input.

Looks nice but I have 2 comments for the moment:
- Almost everything in XWiki is an application and the plan is to move even
more in this direction. Actually any app will be more and more able to
contribute config in any area (e.g. look & feel). Hence I don't think we
should have a category named "applications". The Administration Object
should instead have a category property that the author can choose.

really don't like that the fields don't span the full horizontal space
available. It'll be very very bad looking on large screens and waste useful
and expensive space for nothing. Look at the Copyright and Version fields
for example, you can't see the full content when there's space available on
the right.
