This is a wonderfully written email, and I would particularly agree with
this point. Historically in WP that 10% has also been the group most
willing to write or install plugins to tweak their experience to be
completely custom. 2.5, like every release before it, adds a number of
hooks and has cleaned up a lot of the admin code to make this easier,
and if you look at the Fluency admin plugin someone has already released
you can see the extent of what's possible. (And it was done in a few
days, before 2.5 was even released.)
