Hello Fulvio!

Just checked out your screenshot. I'm currently on travel so I do not 
had a chance to check your code. Anyway, Steven seems to have had a 
glance and you seem to be interested in some response on the function as 
such.

Some comments:

- I like the context menu for the tree. This works in the direction of 
actually making the best games list an instance of the real games list. 
(Probably worth a consideration, to come to only one control here.)

- I like the ability to apply header filter to the tree or not even for 
the stats. This gives an easy access to repertoir browsing e.g. and IMHO 
blends very well with the masks feature.

- IMHO "all games" should be grayed out if no db filter is active. This 
could signify the user what's going on. However, I do not see right now 
how to obtain this.

In general we should discuss this point further. Probably, the games 
list should indeed learn some states: all, tree, header and a 
combination of those. What I tried to discuss with Gerd (but he seems to 
miss understand me here a bit) is how we make clear to the user what he 
actually gets where and why. So, IMHO some visual feedback is required. 
Probably we need a function in the backend that signifies which filters 
are active to achieve this.

This sounds a very good addition.

Indeed.

For me your direction would deserve a "go" state.

BTW: could you please adjust subjects and probably open a new post for 
new stuff? This makes it a lot easier for me to follow discussions, 
especially when I'm on the road. (Sometimes I've only a small Android at 
hand. Acutally, the reason for such a late reply to your interesting 
stuff...) TIA!
