Change admin indicator to icon-only

[silverwind]

Change admin indicator in navbar to icon only, which looks better imho, and the icon is the same as "Site Administration" in this menu, which is exactly what the admin role gives access to. User can hover over the icon to get a native title tooltip which localized text.

Works with any avatar and is now aligned to the notifications and stopwatch dots:

(Before there was slight misalignment):

Active state:

I do not think it's right. That text is for "repo admin"

But here it is "site admin"

Hmm right, I guess we can just remove the title completely. Unfortunately, there is no suitable existing translation and I would like to backport.

Besides the "text" problem, the "icon" is more not-suitable .... why there is a "server" icon next to the user's avatar, it seems more strange.

I think the purpose becomes clear when opening the dropdown.

I think the purpose becomes clear when opening the dropdown.

But it still confuses users at first glance.

And the icon is also inconsistent with other navbar items like "notification", "stopwatch": they all use the blue balls.

I read such blue dots as "activity indicator", but admin info is not such a state, it's a user attribute.

Could move it, yeah. It doesn't have to be same position as the other blue activity indcators.

Any other suggestions? Things about the current icon that I don't like:

• That it's blue. Blue is activity indicator, but this is not one
• That it's so big. I would prefer something more subtle

Another possible icon would be the wrench. I find that more suitable than the server icon:
