Multi tree-type hierarchy feature in AF

It would be great in AF to have multi tree-type hierarchy feature to be able to copy by reference a parent element (without its child elements attached to it). See the attachment

    Why would you want that? It sounds more restrictive.

    In response to Kenneth Barber, "Why would you want that? It sounds more ..." Hi Kenneth, This is not more restrictive, it will be more flexible. It allows to create all the hierachies you want. I have some requests for that.

    This would be a bit tricky I imagine. There might nee to be some limitation that states all children of weak reference must either be the same as its strong reference, or all weak themselves. Adding new strong reference child to a weak reference parent seems like it might cause some problems with relative paths.
