Description

## Description

We envision a more capable and customizable Schema Explorer for understanding the shape of a graph.

## High-Level Plan

Potential scope:

- Persisted layout algorithm choice for the schema graph
- Auto-open details when selecting a node or edge
- Collapsible, persisted sidebar (width and active tab)
- Surface database-native data property types (e.g., `xsd:integer`) instead of JavaScript types

## Related Issues

- Original roadmap issue #685

## Disclaimer

This is a high level roadmap item. The details of the implementation and the described scope could change as the project evolves.
