New to me: Popups module
I've started using and loving the Popups API module. It allows other modules to create lightbox-type ajax popups of other pages and forms. Out of the box, it includes the option to convert several admin UI pieces into popups, like the Configure Block links, Taxonomy Add/List/Edit links, etc. Saving a few seconds here and there adds up to a lot of time!
(Note: Make sure to set the Content Selector in your theme settings (/admin/build/themes/settings/themename). The default is strange, but in most themes div#content should do it.)
