Hi David,

Reasonator has done a lot of pioneering work in this area. We are
copying some of it in SQID (and adding own modifications). In general,
these projects could be nice playgrounds for experimentation here. If
you have suggestions on how to improve these UIs, they are very welcome.

I believe Reasonator is grouping properties by built-in rules, whereas
SQID is using certain property-classes (P31 on Property pages), where
this is available. One could experiment with further approaches or
switches ...
