O my, let me start with things that I havent easily found answers to so far:

1. ( since answered ) how does one change the layout?
2. ( found buried in archives ) how you set up public/admin interfaces?
3. what on earth are all these components? i've been sticking them in and i dont know what 99% of them are or what they are good for.
     like the html compontent. huh? it isnt very obvious.
4. what is the general architecture? i think many questions i have could be answered if i understand how things fit together.
     right now its 48+ hours of poking around the interface and the code with no idea what i am even looking for. its very discouraging and 
     feels like i could spend an eternity before i understand the basic architecture and can then really start to understand everything else.

come to think of it.

#4 is the big one. 

i have no idea how everything interoperates, what is lurking just beneath the hood so, its very hard even for the motivated adopter ( or at least this one )
not to get really discouraged.
