I know that I have difficulties.
The point was that it could be relative easy to add some classes to the 
core in order to get better CSS-cotrol and more customizable layout for 
the BE interface (I have added also more layout control for FE editing).

I know also that some of the changes are unnecessary - in some situation
the customization could be done with correct setup, but I didn't simply
found advice to do that. But in some case there is no TS setup for some 
details. If all relevant table, td, a, img and input elements in BE and 
FE editing could have classes, it would be quite easy to tailor almost 
anything, when the FE and BE interface could fit better for needs of 
individual customers.

I made some php functions for setting user/user group related CSS with 
TypoScript.

You can see from 
http://www.tapionet.net/typo3/development/InterfaceFixesForTypo3.doc
what I mean.
I don't even expect that everything should have TypoScript config
because designers can't imagine all features, which someone might want 
to customize. More classes could get more freedoms also for skin 
designers. <br> tags and many spacers images might cause harm for 
skinning. Instead of BR-tags and spacer images CSS could more control 
the layout of BE and FE interfaces.
