#1, I've used and like the breadcrumbs.
#2, I don't think this is as significant as you claim. This is
completely an aesthetic change. It doesn't reduce any clicks. At least
as compared to Wildfly/JBoss console, *most* of interesting menu items
are on the left side.
#3, We may run out of room on the top menu as we may be adding things
like "devices" and "servers". Not everybody has 1900x1200 displays
and
the admin UI already bearly fits in 1024x800 screencasts.
#4, This change wastes a week of work I did on screencasts for minimal
gain. I'm going to be seriously pissed if I have to redo these before
Thursday...
So, -1 and no vote for me at least for Alpha 1.

When writing documentation to using the admin console I realised the
menus are confusing.
Most applications/websites have their main-menu at the top, with a sub-menu on the left
(or right).
Also I don't think there's any benefit to the breadcrumbs as we never navigate
deep enough for it to be useful.
I propose that we move the items from the menu to the left into the same menu as the
realm selector. Then we move the sub-menu items into the left menu. And also remove the
breadcrumb. See attached screenshot for how this would look like.
I think this is a significant improvement, and it would be worth to get this into the
alpha1 IMO. I can have this tested and committed today if there's consent for it!
