Well, instead of iterating, could you index the TYPE-property and
instead do a Lucene search
for these keywords? You would get back a list of nodes with these
types and be able to show them without
doing an exhaustive traversal?

Yeah, I think this is more of a visualization issue than disconnection
the data model
to support this?
