As observed in #800 (which is ultimately invalid, though), the very small max width on the webadmin themes is _very_ tiny. This makes things look cluttered and scrunched together.

While initially, a maxwidth of being small (800 or 900 px) is fine, it's starting to get very cluttered with everything smushed together on the admin pages.

Can we look into a larger width on the webadmin interface windows for the default theme?

The only way to solve this is to set a static width on the for "URIPrefix", but we would need to somehow show the full string.
Even if we change the themes to a bigger width, its still an issue with long strings.

I suggest making the menu width static, but the main body "min-width: 800px"

Whether that's the case or not, it's still a very small width - and i meant in general things are smushed together, not just with URIPrefix
