Developer/admin modules don't belong in checklist [#1698954]

v4 beta1 shows it was released 2 days ago. I installed it yesterday and now today I see that v4 release is available??? 2 days to beta test?

Also, a bunch of the features it wants you to check off are developer or admin related and not directly related to SEO. So perhaps this module should be renamed or split up. As it is now it's a bit misleading or maybe a bit out of scope.

Your concern is that some of the new checklist items don't belong in the list. That can be handled in one of three ways:

They can be removed from the module, if you can convince the maintainer that they don't belong. You'll have to make your case for that here. Be sure to specifically name the ones you don't think belong.
You can remove them from your installation with a hook_checklistapi_checklist_info_alter() implementation in a custom module.
You can just check them off, even though you didn't install them—there's nothing stopping you—to get a "100% complete" progress report.

I quickly went back through the module to double-check. The only modules IMHO that are not strictly SEO related are in the first tab, "Tools". While I agree that they're (ever so slightly) out of scope, they are so helpful in speeding up SEO-related work that I consider them to be essential. Literally halves the time it takes to do SEO. I believe that they are worth putting up with a slight deviation from the goal.

Buuuut...great idea that there should be a "Admin PowerTools Checklist". You should read the Checklist API docs and create it!!
