Vincent: why not introducing a "Developer" user, in addition of the
"Admin", in the Jetty/HSQLDB package? It could even be done on snapshot
versions only, since this is what developers use the most.
I'm not in favor of introducing a shortcut key because it would concern
every users who might engage the shortcut by mistake, resulting in a WTF
effect. Moreover, we already have too many shortcuts IMO, and they can be
in conflict with browser's ones (think Ctrl+G for example).
I believe a "Developer" user is what we really need.
Thanks,

WDTY?
You're talking about the jetty+hsqldb distribution (the "ZIP Package"
available on the download page)? Is this the most used / downloaded
distribution? Because the other distributions don't have the Admin user,
see
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/ .
Is the Admin user that is created a simple user?
Two options:
1) either he is, in which case this gives another argument for creating
the Admin user as a simple user for the HSQLDB/Jetty packaging
2) either he’s not (ie he’s created as an advanced one) and in this case
we should fix that in 2 places (in the HSLQDB/Jetty packaging + in the code
that creates the Admin user for the other packagins).
Thanks
