<p>On another issue, fgm mentioned the idea of having the API module create inheritance graphs, as is happening in a sandbox currently:<br>

<p>As a note, the API module already parses/saves all the information necessary to create inheritance graphs. It's stored in the api_reference_storage table, and is being used to create the class hierarchies shown on class pages. If you go back a few versions (6.x-1.5 or so I think?), in fact, each class page used to show the entire class hierarchy for that class (now we only show direct ancestors, siblings, and children, not the entire family tree).</p>
<p>Anyway, we could definitely make a graph out of the information that we have. I haven't looked at the sandbox code yet, but the graph looks interesting...</p>
