Anyone up for Snug-mode™ Wagtail? How information-dense do you all want your admin interface anyway?

Screencast of the Wagtail editing interface. A hand cursor appears in the top right, clicking a "Snug mode" toggle in the "on" position. All of the page fields reduce in height and have less space in-between, revealing more fields within the same viewport
