I like the Drawer approach, since it hides away the
clutter and focuses on
the content. The breadcrumbs should provide content-based navigation, while
out-of-context navigation is doable from the drawer (which should be easy
to find and learn to user afterwards). This also obviously helps a lot on
mobile devices.
The only comment I have about it is that it also hides the currently logged
in user and that might be a source of confusion in certain cases, where you
would have to do an extra click to find out which user you are logged in
as. It might also make debugging just a bit harder (like failed test
screenshots). Not sure what we can do about this one though.
Interesting opinion regarding debugging - although the reasons are all
developer oriented. A user typically has a single account.
One of the solutions would be to display the small avatar (like is
implemented currently) near the drawer activator in order to remove some of
the confusion. Problem with this is that is not really the standard for
drawer usage, but let's say that in that area we could also add
notifications icons.
Adding the avatar might help:
- users like Admin to know if they are impersonating other user;
- normal users to know they are not with Guest.
Still, for debugging - we should try to add in the tests a step to set a
easily recognizable avatar for our user types (admin, user, advanced).

Hi Guillaume,
Usually we don't create as many wiki, as for example we create pages :)
so
anyway ... a median wiki has let's say 20
wikis created.
When I proposed Wikis to be listed there I took YouTube's subscription
example, something like
