hello

lots of modules are implementing this kind of feature. the best of them, so far, seems to be Improved Admin and Administration Menu (admin views in 3.x)
please consider joining efforts (ask to be co-maintainer) and deprecating this module in favor of Improved Admin

Priority: Major » Critical

the latest, most up to date and maintained module, with the biggest feature set, seems to be Admin Views
http://drupal.org/project/admin_views

it uses Views and VBO, and has a D6 (alpha) and D7 (stable) branch.
it's bundled with basic views that imitate drupal core interface, but can be easily adapted to each scenario.

from what i've tested and compared in the D7, it's now the top solution
please deprecate in favor of this module, as it hasn't had activity, negative growth and is superseded by Admin Views
