until now, that is the approach... to have only one admin view, where you can
add your own group of tools. i think it could also works in a own view, but it
will not be so easy. for more info read this thread:
http://mail.opencms.org/pipermail/opencms-dev/2005q3/018781.html
i would recommend to experience in the admin view and when you feel confidential
with the whole thing, then try it out outside of the admin view.

this does not make much sence for me... (well, i never tried out a list dialog
outside of the admin view). may be you could check followings:
- there is a parameter called "closelink", where you can set page displayed
after "closing" a dialog.
- take a look at the A_CmsListDialog.actionDialog() method, there are the
actions triggered.
