Hi David, absolute fantastic work!
I very much like the way of selecting connection (and filter) from a list grouped by type. Although I'm missing the option to select all resources just based on type (without selecting a particular predicate/relation). E.g. looking at presidents and then selecting location instead of having to select location (birth) or location (death). What I don't like is the separation of instance-based faceted filters (left hand side) and connections (right hand side). I know that you don't believe in the usability of bidirectional filtering (e.g. starting with movies, pivoting to actors, filtering on location, and then going *back* to movies to see a filtered set of movies). We've discussed that end of last year on the simile list. I'll try to disprove that with a prototype of mine ;) Great to see that you're back with new brilliant UI work again!!
