Databases will be available for Admins or Creators only in the next release (it was a bug in fact), so usual users will not see them. And it is just for configuration. You enable them, do things you need, disable them.
I definitely understand where youāre coming from but still prefer the hybrid mode. Previously, when switching to the Space config, you lost a lot of context, and moving to another space to begin edits when youāre already in another space config was a pain.
The only other way I think it would have helped in the non-hybrid solution is to have the āConfiguration Panelā allow you to move between different spaces (e.g. a dropdown menu), rather than being stuck in one Space Configā¦ Go backā¦ Look for the other spaceā¦ Open up Space Config againā¦ Go backā¦ etc.
That being said, once Admin and Creators are the only ones that see it, I think it would fix the issue of confusion. I guess after that it just comes down to personal preference.
This actually was possible in the āoldā mode (you could click on the space name and it would drop down so you could switch to configuring a different space) but it seems a fair few people never discovered that(!)
