Pipeline Browser

When I look at Mark's diagram, it seems clear to me that we're asking the wrong question. Look at this representation. Without thinking about implementation, draw the graph that it represents.

To me, it logically represents this filter graph:

I think this representation:

Shows this filter graph:

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.
