 * I’m building a game in WordPress that includes a map editor (among other components).
   I’m getting ready to release it but would like to iron out some annoyances, one
   of them is the /wp-admin/ slug.
 * Is there anyway to rename this? Ideally I’d like to rename it to something less
   cryptic, like /dashboard/ or even better, /hq/
 * I’ve looked around but no one seems to have a definitive answer. As WP gets used
   more and more for apps/games, I can’t imagine the /wp-admin/ slug staying there.
   The dashboard itself is awesome for that kind of stuff, but the slug totally 
   ruins it.
 * By the way, here’s an animation of the map editor working in a “post edit” screen
