Could be useful when you are having database problems or coding and need to see if certain things are there. But, if the results don't mean anything to you, then you probably don't need this.

Cool, but could be dangerous in the hands of someone who doesn't know what they are doing.

Yes sure, maybe with securitycheck(like enable function per fileedit) or something like this.
(thats the way i've coded some developer tools).
I've seen that the 0815 user don't edit the file because he don't know how^^

But its realy a very nice modification! thx

Nice one.

For those who'd like a link in admincp within Maintenance group, upload this file in includes/xml/ folder and refresh your admincp.
