Research direction
Locate the existing superuser dashboard and the backend collection-size functionality mentioned in the issue. First confirm how the dashboard accepts a collection name such as "pan" and how existing actions are wired. Done means superusers can enter a collection and click a "show collection size" action that displays its size.
