Set Main navigation as parent when creating new View menu links, not Administration

I have to say that most of the Views I build are for administrators (or are unpathed), so the current default makes sense for me.

Probably largely depends on your setup and usage of Views what is a sensible default, so not convinced changing this will be a big improvement for all users of core. But happy to hear more opinions!

Heh, good point @Lendude, the norm is in the eye of the beholder. Ideally, we should gather data from actual installations, and weigh the "Admin" / "Main Navigation" parent menu ratio, but that data is probably hard to gather. But yes, let's see what others say.

Though, the Drupal core Views issue followers are most likely not ordinary site builders, but experts such as yourself, working on bigger, complex sites.

Site builders, working on smaller sites, create mostly lists of content, and not so much administrative views. That is at least my assumption. Since ordinary Drupal site builders don't normally frequent the Drupal core Views issue queue, we most likely won't hear from them.

I have created https://www.drupal.org/forum/general/general-discussion/2023-07-03/opini... → to hopefully widen the audience.

And while this is being considered.. how about a better way to pick the Parent than scrolling through the 1000 items listed in the drop down?
