Hi, Stefan. I always define my start nodes connected to the root node via specific relationship types. For example, I might have a collection of people and a collection of cars. I would create a new node to be the start node of the people collection, and create A relationship from the root node to this new node, of relationship type "people". Then do the same for each other "start node". Then, to quickly find a start node, simply traverse a single relationship from the root node. Hope that makes sense!
