Hello,

I would like to submit an idea on the concept of “Actors” and “Actor Views”.

This idea was inspired while working through a logical flow on a board that would function as mixture between process, swim lane and data flow to show a highly interconnected system from different perspectives.

An “Actor” would be an entity that is responsible for the ownership of an object within a board. An “Actor” entity may or may not also be able to be an object on the board.

An “Actor View” would be a view of a board, with or without “Actors” being present and by extension, objects that “Actors” are associated with.

An “Actor” would show up outside of the board with other actors and function essentially as a resource list, so that when looking at any view, it is possible to quickly assess impact if one or more resources are removed how it would impact the interconnected elements of the view.
