Sage 5 as a Node Editor

[docfleetwood]

Hello Rob - Great to see you are back around and developing Sagelight!

One program I have been investigating lately for video editing is called Davinci Resolve. It is a node-based editor. I have come to really like the node-based editing idea and how easy it is to effectively undo something that would be several steps back in the undo history by simply deactivating a node, but maintain all the other changes you have done before AND after that node (point in the undo history). I'm not sure if you are familiar with Resolve. If not, you should check out its 'color' page and its node-based editing via some YouTube videos.

I point this out because I have subsequently seen many people online who yearn for a node-based photo editor (as opposed to video editor). Now, I am not a programmer so me asking for one is certainly the easy part but I would ask that you give thought to the idea. I think this would reposition Sagelight as a major new player for people to try. Again, I have no idea what that means programmatically on your end but I figured that the hard work of the photo editing algorithms are already in Sagelight, so now it would be an issue of allowing people to apply them as nodes.

Anyway, just an idea for your consideration. Thanks for making Sagelight and for coming back to it!
