For me the ideal would some syntax, that given an arbitrary user-defined <property>, (for example extends::), looks like this:

Specify relations between pages

Parent.md
<property>:: [[Child]]

:arrow_up_down:

Child.md
<property>:: [[Teddy]]

Tree

{{tree <property>}}

displays an indented list of pages by following that <property> specified by the user, i.e.

- [[Parent]]
  - [[Child]]
      - [[Teddy]]

Reverse tree

{{reverse-tree <property>}}

display another indented list but by following <property> in the other direction:

- [[Teddy]]
  - [[Child]]
      - [[Parent]

Breadcrumb

{{breadcrumb <property>}}

used in a page involved in the hierarchy above, for example Child.md, displays:

[[Parent]] > [[Child]] > [[Teddy]]

in case Child.md is involved in a more complex hierarchy it would be:

[[Parent 1]] > [[Child]] > [[Teddy 1]]
                         > [[Teddy 2]]
[[Parent 2]] > [[Child]] > [[Teddy 1]]
                         > [[Teddy 2]]

Reverse breadcrumb

(you got the idea)

Graph view

In addition it would be nice to display in the graph view only certain relations and not other ones (including “reference” that is the only type of relation we have now in the graph view).

For me it would be also useful to display the graph directly on a page with the command:

{{graph <property>}}

and for the graph of the current page only (like the one we already have in the sidebar):

{{page-graph <property>}}

I think this condense the proposal and I hope it would cover all the use cases we have in mind. “Editable” tree looks way more complicated to implement to me and I would be fine without it anyway.
