 > What other links do you imagine under "Common Links"? Do you expect this
 to auto-populate with actual frequently-used links as users add items to
 their menus? Or is it just meant to be a specially-curated list of links?

 My thought was to show "Home" and "login" by default.  Mostly because
 these are particularly hard to figure out how to add to the menu.  But
 then to allow theme devs to hook in and add/remove whatever links they
 want.  I don't think we should auto-populate with frequently-used links.

 > If the latter, then I suggest that we rename it to something different,
 as "common" suggests to me that they would be links I've inserted before.

 Open to suggestions.  How about "Helpful links", or "Quick links"?

 >Also, wonder if anyone has extra suggestions as for links to add in
 there? Seems silly to have that meta box for just 2 links.

 I think it's okay to have just 2 links.  I don't want to add too many, or
 we'll lose the "Custom Links" meta box at the bottom fold.
