Summary

This includes various fixes for the files navigation and folder tree:

  • Files navigation:
    • Only compute views needed for current navigation entry - prevent heavy recomputing trees when new views are registeres
    • Load child views only when needed (shown)
  • Folder tree:
    • If possible load nodes from files store to prevent API calls
    • Register views in batches
    • Do not keep random folders open but default to current path (this reduces API calls on page load)
    • Initialize all shown folders in one API call.
      This reduces API calls from N to 1 when you are in some nested folder because you need not only the children of the root but all siblings of the parents.
      Now this is included in one initial API call.
