WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND
I am using relations to manage many objects in my Vault. A lot of times the same relation is being repeated but is related to a separate note so there are many duplications and It’s getting really convoluted to find the right relation to the correct note.
HOW COULD IT BE DONE
Creating a segmented list for relations, for example:
Project A/Status
Project B/Status
Instead of just having two separate statuses in the same relations list.
REAL WORLD USE CASES
When working with many relations that are relevant to different projects / notes.

Would these requests resolve your needs?
If relation is full object, we can embed other relation/object into the naming of the major relation/object, or have hierarchies.
WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND
Allow types to have dynamic titles depending on their relations.
HOW COULD IT BE DONE
Add an option in the type library for each type for their title to be built from relations if you wish.
REAL WORLD USE CASES
Plenty of examples. One are books. The syntax could go something like this:
Relations
Title - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Author - J. K. Rowling

[title] by [author]

I think, moving forward, that there will be value in having the object collection distributed in distinct hierarchies with versioning and owners.
there should (imho) be CORE generic attribute types,
(bool/str/int/float/enum/address/lat-lng/street/city/state/country etc)
there should (imho) be CORE object types/templates
These should be curated/owned by anytype.
These should be distributed versioned.
There could be add-on collections (scientific | architectural | fashion | creatures | plane…
For easier identification between objects/relations that have similar names, we just need to distinguish between themselves.
WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND
If you have multiple objects of the same type with the same name, you have a problem:

What is needed is some way to instruct Anytype about what additional pieces of information should be displayed in contexts like these to help users choose the correct object.
HOW COULD IT BE DONE
Right now it’s possible to star certain relations in a type so that they are displayed in a privileged position in the header when the object is viewed. The very simplest solution simpl…
Naming is not really the solution, because you than have many types of naming and a lot of relations flooding the add relation window. There should b another system to sort through relations and it better be visual based and note naming based.
