I don't really see that the vertical bar adds anything over the arrows
we currently have.
I don't really agree with extra spacing either.  Being a vertical bar,
space is already fairly limited so I would see extra space as wasted
space.
One thing I am all for and think should be in unity as soon as
possible are the folders/groups/stacks.
I have found these invaluable in android.
