A few thoughts:

If anyone is interested in volunteering to do this, an important component of
the rewrite is that it should use Woven.  Also: the tree ought to be
collapsable, and the distinction between "static" and "dynamic" entity lists
should be removed.  (There may still be a useful distinction of "entities which
can be removed without impacting an external resource".  It's pretty clear that
the current approach is not the way to go, though, since it creates a useless
distinction in most cases and bloats an interface that should be small and
simple.)
