Never quite as bad as dragging the root of the server in windows somewhere by 
mistake ;-)

    No, I'm talking about the way Softimage does it. You can just drag
    and drop objects around to change the hierarchy. I would prefer if
    you had to press a key to be able to mess with the parenting by drag
    and drop.

           However, I would prefer
            to have a shortcut key pressed to be able to reparent things
            in the explorer. Right now, it's too easy to mess a
            hierarchy when selecting an object and slipping the mouse
            too much. You don't even realize you did it.

                Eric hit most of
                      the salient points, however one thing i would add
                      is selection modes
                 
                it's massively
                      intuitive and productive being able to select a
                      hierarchy with middle click
                 
                add to this the
                      drag and drop features in the softimage explorer
                      (for both parenting and copying
                      materials/properties) and you can do a huge amount
                      of work with minimal clicks
                 
                a
