As a Phoenix user, I Call out! Something like the Django admin in phoenix would be like taking the actual USP of Django away … and it could even be real-time and collaborative by default :-)

More like: if I would lose it today, I would be the same thing again, maybe next gen M2/3, but everything basically identical to this one. There is no single other device out there I'd prefer to buy instead. Nothing shiny to chase

update: this specific issue is something I could work around differently: defining a user that has its own credentials within SF who can be used in the auth flow did the trick without any redirect needs! See: https://gist.github.
