Description

We have argument "Relativity: Parent Node ID", why no "Relativity: Child Node ID"?
In general, I will need argument/filter/field about child sometimes, not only about parent.

J3: I do not really get it, what a "Relativity: Child Node ID" will do in a view??
Aren't we talking about listing some nodes belonging to a parent? What will a child node ID will do in your opinion?
Please explain with some examples if possible.

Ok. "Performer" is a node. Child node is "Career". "Career" carries fields for "Tour" which is variable and can be "touring", "recording", "sabbatical". Career is a child node because "performer" node also has child node "biography" (which has variable fields as well).

"performer" is node referenced by "Producer".

So in trying to create a view that lists a producer, their performers, and the status of the performer (Touring, Recording, or Sabbatical) is very tough without being able to list Child Node ID in the Relationship section of Views 2.
