View blog menu item

[arthus]

Reported by: Mayhemmad

It would be great if a menu item to view the site was available. A suggested location would be above the logout button named 'View' and suggested shortcut would be 'V'.

This would work best with a plugin or core modification to include the menu in the blog so it could be used to jump quickly between the blog and admin.

Additionally if editing a post the view blog menu item could link to the post in question. This would allow quick previewing of edits made.

Pluging that adds an extra menu item for viewing the blog

I've quickly coded a plugin that has this effect. Menu items can only be added to the bottom of the menu which isn't ideal.

I've added this to the repo so others can possibly add to it and/or review for inclusion in core.
