Problem/Motivation

I created a custom role for my client called "Web Mater" I want him to be able to quickly navigate through the admin menu, as I am able to do. When I use masquerade for his account, I cannot see any of the menus in the admin_menu, only the elements listed in the issue title. He has the correct permissions, as far as I can tell.

Proposed resolution

Help needed

Remaining tasks

Replicate the issue
Identify the cause
Patch or recommend solution

User interface changes

Need UI to match admin view, while reflecting permissions.

From the README:

-- CONFIGURATION --

* Configure user permissions in Administration » People » Permissions »
  admin_menu module:

  - access administration menu

    Users in roles with the "Access administration menu" permission will see
    the administration menu at the top of each page.

  - display drupal links

    Users in roles with the "Display drupal links" permission will receive
    links to drupal.org issue queues for all enabled contributed modules. The
    issue queue links appear under the administration menu icon.

  Note that the menu items displayed in the administration menu depend on the
  actual permissions of the viewing user. For example, the "People" menu item
  is not displayed to a user who is not a member of a role with the "Administer
  users" permission.
