The problem is that we want the browsing of code on any entity not only mondrian.
and we do not want to change all the existing visualizations to use view interaction
popupText:
I still do not get how people can really use moose to understand code without seeing the

The feature was removed from the default system complexity because it is impractical for

You can always use
