There will be some improvements, but mostly cosmetic. objectadmin is the nexus for a LOT of functionality and handles a lot of different situations. This issue is a case in point, objectadmin transparently works with versioned content, unversioned content that has status, and no-status content, several different database engines, permissions, custom record sets, pagination, filters, custom columns / buttons / dropdown actions, arbitrary ordering and where clauses. It's been built up over a decade and, as Phil has discovered, is spread out through a winding maze of tags and components using all sorts of weird hacks (did you know that a component called from a tag has access to attributes?). What it really needs is to be burnt in a fire, scattered over separate bodies of water, then re-written, and to hell with backwards compatibility. But that's a lot of work and it works now (more or less), so we keep putting it off :)
