Description

When I drill down to a particular part of a graph, it isn't uncommon to find a node that isn't part of the main graph at the inner namespace. When I add that node to the main graph, the visualization resets, forcing me to drill down again, potentially many times if there are several nodes to add to the main graph. It would be nice instead if the graph visualizer remembered what namespaces I had collapsed and open before I added or removed a node from the main graph.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the graph visualizer entry point and reproducing the drill-down, node-addition flow; inspect how namespace expansion state is stored and updated. Done means collapsed and open namespaces remain unchanged after adding or removing a node from the main graph.
