This can be applied in several places throughout the admin system such as Content, Categories, etc. But, for now, let's just use the 'Category Manager' for our example...
You've created a new Section, named "Blah" You want to create ten new Categories, "BlahBlahSomething" though "BlahBlahSomethingElse."
The current routine is: Click New, fill-in the information and click Save. Wait for the 'Category Manager' to reload. Click New. Fill-in. Save. Repeat, ad infinitum.
What you're missing is a 'Save & New' button on the 'Category: new' page. When you're done filling-in the new category information, you click 'Save & New'; you don't have to wait for the 'Category Manager' to reload, just so you can click 'New' again... and again, and...!
If we were creating Menu items, a 'Save & Duplicate' button might be handy, too. For example, if I've got three or four 'Table - Content Category' items to create, then chances are, a lot of the options are going to be very similar. So, 'Save & Duplicate' copies everything I've entered in the current one, into the new one. Then, I change only those things that are different.
Take this thought, add it to every page where you're 'filling-in' something new, and pretty soon, you're saving HOURS worth of waiting for pages to reload, us slow-typists would save wear-and-tear on our index fingers, and dial-up users would really love you!!!
Just a thought...
