good to have quick links also.
I think Xwiki is structured to
The root application >> wikis  >> spaces in a wiki >> Pages in a space.
If you reveal that in the menu users get the intuitive feeling that they
can create a wiki also. And in a wiki they can have spaces  and etc...
Well the first time I used XWiki my intuition was to use the drop down at
space to get a list of spaces.I thought the document index would list the
spaces available.
I was confused to get a list of pages only.Later I got to know that a
document means a page ;-)
Well, my intuition on the UI aspects may not be everyone's intuition though
;-).

Thanks.
Regards,
Sasinda.
