What is the proposed idea/solution?

For our projects we schedule around a keystone/constraint/foundation task.  It would be nice to be able see where this keystone task sits when the items in group are collapsed.  This way, we can drag the whole group backwards and forwards without having to expand the view and select all the tasks, which is slow.

In view settings, would be able to optionally specify "Keystone task name" which would be highlighted in collapsed view, and also when expanded.

Example:

How does it solve user problems?

Increase speed and effectiveness of adjusting projects with a focus on a key resource.

How was this validated?

Can't validate UI elements, but can confirm that rescheduling a collapsed group is much easier and quicker.  Only trouble is need to expand to be able to see constraint resource!

Who is the target audience?

Anyone using Airtable for project management

Cool solution!  There's huge community demand for the general functionality of selecting multiple records on timeline / gantt views to be able to move entire projects or sections of. 

Thanks @Coups, hopefully it gets picked up!  

It doesn't seem like a major functional change, so hopefully would not be too difficult to implement,
