This feature request is inspired by New “content creation” menu proposal and Add "Add" item to toolbar.
Adding content is a critical function in Drupal. While we have added a tools block and a default shortcut for this EVERY OTHER MAJOR CMS puts an add or create content link in the MAIN toolbar. This is marked critical because it is a critical usability problem in Drupal that a new user has to hunt around just to find where to do the most fundamental thing that a CMS does; create content.
Content can not only be nodes, but also media items or custom entities
...
The top level admin sections result in a disjointed experience for people with primarily content creation/management focused permissions. Access to items that for these users are similar tools is spread out across multiple admin sections.
We* propose to introduce a content editor menu that brings these creation/management tasks together for easier access.
