Wikimedia Labs/Interface usability improvement project

The war on clicks
Many actions in the interface take way too many clicks to access. There's a number of things we can do to reduce clicks:


 * 1) Bug 44174: Remove "are you sure" steps from places it isn't necessary
 * 2) Bug 44175: Combine role and project membership into a single interface
 * 3) Bugs 44176, 44177: Add an API and make a combined javascript interface

Notifications
For things that occur mostly asynchronously, like instance creation and security group rule modifications, we should be able to notify users of when actions have completed.


 * 1) Bug 44178: Add Echo to labsconsole
 * 2) Bug 44179: Add Echo notification for instance reboot completions
 * 3) Bug 44180: Add Echo notification for instance build completions (full puppet run, send to all admins of the project)
 * 4) Bug 44182: Add Echo notification for new requests in queues

Skin
Vector leaves something to be desired. Change the default skin.


 * Try out the strapping-mediawiki skin
