Description

Our configs are hierarchical (x.y.z) and can be quite numerous. We can now sort the table, but it would be great to be able to collapse and expand bits of the table based on the hierarchy.

• A complete collapse table would show just the x sections.
• Expanding one level down would show x.y values, both those to be further expanded and those that are fully expanded.
• etc. for each level.

This would make it easy to quickly jump from one bit of config to another. I poked around, looking for a jquery library, but didn't immediately see a good match. Most of the hierarchical tree libraries are for file systems, which doesn't really fit here.
