One of the facilities of the old dashboard that I found of use was the chart that showed workflows by node.
It allowed me to create a window for each workflow in use, showing the number of drawings at each stage. This was useful in identifying where bottlenecks were occurring. I now need to search by user/organisation, one at a time
It is a shame that the old system was retired without ensuring that the existing functionality was available but...
Progress :)

It's disappointing to find out that this functionality once existed, and now it's treated as something that "can't be done". The old adage of, "if it ain't broke, break it".
It's what software engineers call "deprecation". One day you find a really useful function has been "deprecated" which means they claim it's "out-of-date"/"little used"/"of little benefit" when what they really mean is "the software engineer who developed it has left, or we pushed them out, and nobody who's left understands it anymore to be able to develop or maintain".
