Users waiting for approval

Permalink
I am testing out 5.5 right now and I have a question about approving users...or really about notification in general:

Is there a way to highlight that the admin/toplevel users need to do "something"? Right now, how do I (for example) even know that some users are awaiting approval?

All that space on the top bar is begging for me to see something up there like a little red number or "!" or something saying that I need to approve users, or that something critical is waiting for me.

Is there any functionality for this? Seems like if you have a setting that says "X can only happen if Y approves it" should be followed by a notification function that tells Y that X is waiting?

Thanks,

N

there's a thread started about making this specific thing (approving users)
have email alerts:

No, there's no other waiting for me actions type workflow interface in the
works for the core.
there is an enterprise workflow system in the works, that's more content
focused than user approval however.

Great and prompt response as always! Thanks!

(by the way the link you pasted in there does not seem to work, but I believe you about the functionality being discussed :)
