| When I look at Mark's diagram, it seems clear to me that we're asking the wrong question. Let's turn the problem around, and look at things from the user standpoint.

| Take this simple test: Look at a Pipeline Browser representation, and without thinking about (code, etc.) implementation, draw the graph that it represents. Think as a <i>user</i>, not a <i>programmer</i>.

| ===The Test===

| What does this Pipeline Browser representation show?

| To me, it logically represents this filter graph:

| ===Conclusion===
| |
| In other words, when I look at the hierarchy, I think it naturally leads to 'indentation means connection'. If we do it this way, I think we solve several problems - the thing makes sense, and I think it's easy to understand. Of course, this comes at the sacrifice of width - large chains of filters will be 'wide', because we always indent. To me, this is the correct sacrifice to make, because it makes the whole widget easier to understand. I like it for the first rev.
