Title: lazy loading the menu in page change list

Putting CMS_LAZY_LOAD_MENU = True into your settings will make the admin only load the first level of nav and then lazy load in the next level when the user clicks on the + button. This is helpful for a site that has a large amount of pages. My current project has 900+ pages and it's increased the usability of the page change list quite a bit.

I'm sure I'm missing some details here but wanted to put this out here for comments, thoughts, ridicule.
