Description

Currently if you try to reach a non-existent admin page (site/wp-admin/bleh.php) you get a 404 from the public part of the blog

Wouldn't it be more logical to get a 404 that would match the admin environment? Or, at least, something along the lines of site/wp-admin/link-manager.php?

We don't actually have any rewrites configured for WP-admin, and doing so for this 404 seems unnecessary. Eventually our admin will be good enough for pretty URLs, but we're a long way from that.

Would be awesome to pretty URLs on the admin =) [+1]

Rewrites would make this easier, until then this could be added in the template redirection logic. But is there really a benefit of having a custom 404 page for the admin like in 404.php​? How often do you access /wp-admin/bleh.php by accident?
