Describe the solution you'd like

Hi.
Thank you for working on this tool. Would it be possible to make a mode for path optimization but for the whole build and not to just the current node that is hovered?
So you simply highlight most of the nodes you want and the tool then finds the shortest path for the entire tree.

Similiar to this website https://www.pathofpathing.com

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing Path Optimizer behavior and reviewing pathofpathing.com for the proposed whole-build workflow; done means users can select multiple target nodes and receive a shortest path for the full tree.
