By the way, have you already picked any particular technology for the rewrite? Will it be Angular 2+ or React, like for account2?

Also my hopes are that the Admin Console becomes truly pluggable/extensible one day. At the moment, if you have two GUI extensions from different authors, you have to hop between the themes, which I myself consider a substantial flaw.
