[MarkLogic Dev General] (1) Canceling XQuery requests, (2) Exploring Resource Hierarchy

[Todd Gochenour]

*(1) Canceling XQuery requests*
I just found the [cancel] action in the (show more) view of
Configure/Groups/Default/App Servers/App-Services[HTTP]/status tab.  It has
to be one of the most useful functions for a developer in all of Admin.
Why is it buried so far down in the interface, nine clicks away?   I vote
for moving this to the Query Console, right next to the [run] action.  It
would make experimenting with queries in Marklogic so much more enjoyable.

*(2) Exploring Resource Hierarchy*
The [explore] action in Query Console is a bit annoying, paging through a
list without the ability to sort or filter. I would like to have the
ability to see and navigate the directory hierarchy and search for, insert
and delete one or more files like in a traditional filesystem.  eXistDB has
a client tool to do this.  Where is it for MarkLogic?   eXistDB wraps the
collection() concept around their directory hierarchy, which was a lot of
use to me.  I have yet to capitalize either on MarkLogic directories or
collections in the same way. Granted I've only been at this for a week so
there maybe aspects I have yet to uncover.  I understand that perhaps
WebDAV is what I'm looking for and I have yet to configure my machine to
access the database this way.
