Specific IP's have Special Permissions in the next 1.6.x version? Tell us what you think
I think not. Dynamic IPs and all that would make it insecure.

Well it is for a specific IP that admins choose so If admins isnt logged in he can still access the Admin CP hyperlink.
Still doesn't change the fact that it would be insecure due to Dynamic IP addresses.

This.. only if you have a static IP is it okay. But, you never know if there will be a change that messes everything else up, and gives some random dude extra access to something in your board.
