Organize file list in a tree

[roger.oberholtzer@…]

When there are lots of files in the download area, it might be nice to be able to organize them in an expandable tree. It is possible that existing properties (e.g., platform, uploaded) could be used for this. Or perhaps a new one just for this (e.g., grouping). I am thinking about the table of available downloads.

I know that this could get complicated in that once you have a tree, how deep should it be? If one had a grouping variable, it could be like this:

• In the absence of a value for the grouping, the item is shown in the root, as it is today. So, if you don't do anything, the downloads look the same.
• If you add a grouping string, it could be something like level1 or level1/level2, etc. Each forward slash adds a level in the tree.
