+1 for 3.
I would also like to see the number of child nodes for a parent node,
without expanding it. This way I won't be surprised that expanding a
node with >1000 child nodes takes so long (either because of the DB,
network or DOM).
Now, regarding the three proposed ways of adding new nodes:
-1 for A and B since I'd like to be able to add a child node without
expanding the parent (especially when I see it has >1000 child nodes
already). How can I know that the name I want it's not taken? The UI
(input dialog or filter) should tell me. I don't want to scroll through
1000 (not even 100) nodes to find that by myself.
-0 for C since, although it seems scalable, it isn't. The problem is
when the name of the parent node is really long and there are many
actions on the right of it.
So to me C seems better than A and B, but not perfect. Unfortunately I
don't have a better solution.. thinking..

In a previous thread we've discussed about how to
add a link in the
WYSIWYG editor, and more generally, how to browse the wiki from a
WYSIWYG dialog box (See http://markmail.org/message/tyxrcr24w3n6m2pn
for more details).
After some thinking and a discussion with Laurent Lunati, I'd like to
suggest a 3rd way of browsing the wiki from the WYSIWYG: an enhanced
tree menu.
I've put the mockups and Pros/Cons on this wiki page :
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewWysiwygEditorWikiExplorer
This wiki explorer widget would be used in the link dialogs, image
dialogs, file (attachment) dialogs.
Here's my +1 for 3) A).
+1 for 3) with filter option.
From the implementation POV 3) is probably the most difficult proposal
and 1) the simplest one. Widget 3) would need to be a reusable (and
highly configurable) GWT component so that we could use it as our main
navigation/reorganization tool in the future. This tree would replace
our current treeview (Main.AllDocs) which is AFAIR the only page using
the YUI library in XE.
Thanks,
JV.
