Editor role in the distribution

First thanks for your excellent work in this distribution :)
I just tried the distribution in a local host and in pantheon.
I do not understand the use of the editor role in the distribution. It has several permissions, but no way (menu) to use them that i see. I though that it would serve the role of a content admin, but it cannot access the reservations and other content types essential for this objective. The administrator role has more permissions but is on the same situation.
Am i wrong in thinking like this? And if yes, a website/content admin role would be a very useful feature to have out the box.
