i do understand that you think other methods of having the distinction might not work; i have reservations myself that way. (i do feel the disctinction is important.) i also see that mirror layout should be as easy as possible for mirror admins. however, looking at the big picture, i think that logically it's sounds to have one purpose to one thing; and thus for the mirror layout; only the mirror admins should be looked at; the viewpoint of a user _should_ not really matter.
