Wouldn't it be nice if when the thread got over a certain size you got a
"relative view" instead of nothing? Not sure this is a well formed idea or

Now, computationally this may be quite expensive to compute, I am not sure.
The algorithm for doing it may also be hard, I haven't thought about tree

So consider it a pretty low priority wishlist item, but it may be fun to
work on and a good break from more drudgery-ish sorts of things.
