I love the ability to expand and collapse nodes but this feature would be a lot more useful if, when right clicking on a node, we could selectively choose which specific nodes we want expanded.

Right now the default is to expand everything. For, say the Render target, that's a lot of nodes crowding up the interface if I only need to work with one or two of them. It would also be convenient if we could expand single items in a node tree from the Node inspector. We can delete them from there, why not expand too? Or here is another idea, how about a command to duplicate a node from the Node inspector?

It would also be nice to be able to select a full node tree using the right click.

How to make a multiple selection for "object layer node" to change the layer of selected nodes in on click?
