Hi!

Hmm, not sure if this would classify as something hierarchical. I’d classify it 
as something set-based. It would allow “many to many” relations between files 
and collections, with definitions of the relation being declared per 
collection. I.e. a collection is a set of files. I haven’t thought of adding 
hierarchical relations between collections. I also haven’t thought of adding 
arbitrary named relations between collections (i.e. creating a graph). So this, 
in my mind, is orthogonal to hierarchies and graphs. I haven’t thought of what 
relations between collections should mean. And haven’t thought that there 
should be a syntax for that either.

But please explain more on what you think, if I misunderstood you!

That seems hierarchical, which is ok (as in org-mode itself) but how about 
implementing a more general graph mechanism, which could be used to do this but 
more flexibly?

Hi list and all honored readers!

I have an idea. One that I've mentioned before in side notes. And I want to 
emphasize that this still only is an idea. But I want to present this idea to 
you. As a way to gather feedback and get input. Maybe the idea is stupid!? 
Maybe you think it's already solved? Or maybe it's not, and lots of you 
resonate with it as well. In any case, please let me know what you think on the 
piece below!
