I'd disagree with the notion that administrators don't need to explain themselves as much as other editors. In my opinion, the automatic rollback should be reserved for situations where there is no possibility of misunderstanding, which generally means reverting either blatant vandalism or a very obvious mistake. If there's any chance that I might have misunderstood the intent of the edit, or that someone else could possibly misunderstand why I reverted it, I'll do the revert manually and provide an edit summary.
Hence my assumption that administrators are prudent enough to put edit summaries when needed instead of always using the rollback button. But that would be in a Perfect World.
Of course, if there was a way to rollback with a custom edit summary...
That has crossed my mind, but seems hard to implement.
