with broken i mean that the content page remains empty when i click the task form link.

there are 3 target audiences: process participants, managers and administrators

administrators is the most important one to go into production.  that kind fo functionality is what we have been lacking till now.    that doesn't mean that we should present the task forms to admins.  

if a user only has the process participant role, he/she should not see the admin stuff and you should see an end user webapp.  so for the process participants, the web app should be designed for end users to process their tasks.

if you are an admin, you should have all admin features and functionalities available.  it should be based on the servlet security roles.

as for the navigation, we should strive for 1 overall webapp + navigations so that based on the roles, some parts/columns/actions are just not displayed.
