Cook generates a control panel view of all the possible menu items in the home page of the component, it would be nice to have the first option on the menu as the global configuration option.

For back-end... why not ?

The best is a menu editor in cook, able to create menus as you like (including cpanel, wich is a menu)
It s planned for the future.

Also being able to set up your icons, etc...
