Right now I can only add relations of **“\*-to-many”** type (collections) to a smart folder. I would also like to be able to add relations of \*-to-1 type.

_Use case:_ in my **Project** DB I have a 1-to-1 relation to a Meeting Notes entity. I would like to see the Meeting Notes entity listed in the Project’s smart folder, where it would serve as a shortcut. That way I can open it directly from the sidebar without having to first open the Project and find the Meeting Notes relation.

Use Case: Single Employee Filling Multiple Roles in Org Hierarchy The list hierarchy is an ideal candidate to show an organization tree. The idea was to show the roles (Seats), then assign people to one or more Seats. A “Seat” can have one or more child seats below it that the list view can display. I then had an “Employee” model that can be associated with one or more seats. So, I expected to be able to show the same employee showing up multip…

This is very similar to my productivity use case, combining tasks, projects, notes, meetings

I also find the restrictions of relation types a challenge

and would love to be able to have the same entity type appear ore than once, e.g. a notes as children of tasks, and of projects
