"Moderator Control Panel" availability only on certain pages

Moto, this will be one for you.
I just logged on and discovered ~35 posts of spam in various sections (all from the same user.)
I quickly discovered that the "Moderator Control Panel" isn't available on the most useful pages for mass deleting such problem posts. eg. bring up all the user's posts - no mod control panel, so can't delete them from that page; "view new posts" - no mod control panel so can't delete them from that page either. I ended up needing to go into each sub subsection where the posts were, then the Mod Control Panel would appear and could be used to select and delete them.
A bit of a PITA. Perhaps it was a finger problem at my end?
(Perhaps the other mods might have a better idea on how I could have done it quicker?)
