One thing I always notice about the Content Structure is the fact that its never separated into more than one page. I have my own side project with ez publish 4.3 (so no, I haven't done the upgrade yet), but I notice that after roughly 175 entries in the content structure menu, it begins cutting them off. I see that the sub items for every node has the limiting factor of 10, 25, and 50. Why not do the same thing for the left hand menu? Of course you probably couldn't do the same (offset)/some_number module request, but what about storing this data in the session and thus the user has it for their duration? Or perhaps including this feature, but by default its disabled?

Hello Erik,
I have to say I disagree with this idea. It strikes as a bad idea since the content structure menu is displaying a tree of content data not a list.
I think it would be better for you (on your site) to limit the number of content objects displayed in the menu (by class identifier for example, see: settings/contentstructuremenu.ini ) which parent is the root node.
