symfony propel-init-admin backend foobar FooBar

 does the trick for me, you don't have to use symfony for the frontend as
well if you don't want to.

I've been using my own frame work for about 2 years, but have come to use
symfony for most new builds now, the cons are that where I know the ins and
outs of my own frame work, I don't have that volume of knowledge yet for
symfony. On the plus side though - there are a lot more people who DO know
symfony than know my set of classes, so its easier to problem solve
sometimes.
