(is this the right forum for talking about j packages?)

I was trying to flesh out the comments on
http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Functional_coverage_tree#J today, and I
noticed that dissect is not as illuminating as I had expected for the
expression:

dissect 'weight ((] (1}.~.parent)}~ 1}. * %&(parent +//. ]) [)^:_) coverage'

Basically, dissect treats the entire U verb argument to ^: as a black box.

I can click on the noun part and it will expand to the  previous
iteration, but there seems to be no place for the internals of any
instance of that verb.

Clicking on that part of the verb brings up a browser page talking about ^:

I suspect it would make more sense to have clicking on that part of
the verb bring up a dissect window showing the details of that verb on
its arguments.

(I'm not worrying, yet, about implementation - worst case, I might
even be able to do the implementation of this idea. But first I'd want
to make sure I'm not ignoring some really obvious issue(s) here.)

Thanks,
