Hi, Expanding/collapsing is an essential part of a tree structure, since it allows to speed up navigatioon. I don't believe the parameter search idea would introduce too much complexity, as the interface would already need to keep track of all the parameters in the tree. I quite agree about keeping the command and "visual", to use the vi terminology, interfaces fairly separate. Ecasound is a good reference for a command-driven interface, but I especially like the way nama has a "nearly" (we still have to review it) coherent set of long-hand and matching short-hand commands.
