bq: Thoughts?

I don't do UI work so I just sit back and cheer ;)

Then I do, of course have thoughts...

Mostly, when you're thinking about this think about scale. For
instance, the graph view is nice for a few nodes/collections. 1,000
collections (yes, some people scale that way) with even 2x2
collections is almost, but not quite totally, unusable. Maybe
copy/paste or cut/paste? Or some way to restrict what's shown to the
relevant nodes? More generally how to navigate around when there are
zillions of replicas....

Best,
Erick
