Hierarchical Outgoing Links

Overview

Displays outgoing links for the active document as a hierarchy based on the folder structure of the references.

Motivation

In the age old folders vs tags debate I tend to lean heavier on physically structuring notes into high level categories. The tag hierarchy display provides a nice overview of tags and how they relate to each other and I wanted something similar that leveraged the folder structure to display outgoing links as a tree.
