Hi,

We’re starting to look at the built-in reporting, and find the page view reporting on the admin dashboard interesting. However, I guess that’s _all_ pageviews? So including search results, the `/category` page, `/new`, `/latest` &etc?

We see a real distinction to be made in navigation pageviews, versus consumption-of-content pageviews, i.e. thread views.

From an instance admin standpoint I see the usefulness of the current Consolidated Pageviews graph.

And as a community manager, I have a desire for a second stacked bar graph: Consolidated Threadviews, showing Logged in users and Anonymous users (but not Crawlers).

Or is the share of navigation pageviews typically so small that it generally doesn’t matter?
