The question is not important for @auto nodes.  A view is simply a list of
nodes, cloned or not.

The question *is* important for @auto-view nodes.  Mostly, I can't answer
it yet--it will depend on how @auto-view works.

In both cases, however, the unl's contain information relating to
hierarchy:  a --> b --> c says that b is a child of a, and c is a child of
b (unless we generalize the search algorithm)

If we *don't* generalize the unl search algorithm, then a sort operation on
unl's can be defined.  For example, here is a sorted list of unl's

a
a --> b
a --> b --> c
e
e --> f
e --> g
etc.

It's kinda like outline order, but not exactly.

Even if we *do* generalize the unl search algorithm, we could first "fix"
(make static) the unl's so that no searching is required and then apply the
sort algorithm.

A sorted list of unl's will likely be needed in order to more easily
reorganize the imported @auto tree.
