Graph view in Bases

Use case or problem

Current Graph functionality is limited in that ALL links within a note (either in the note properties or in the body of the note) are counted as links for the Graph. There is no way, for example, to filter the graph so it only includes links contained in specific property fields. Existing Bases functionality allows such filtering.

In addition, the existing means of maintaining different Graph filtering rules via bookmarks is limited and cumbersome. Existing Bases functionality allows far more flexibility for filtering rules.

Proposed solution

Implement a Bases ‘Graph’ view similar to existing Graph functionality, but using the results of the Bases filter to populate the Graph.

Current workaround (optional)

None.

Related feature requests (optional)

I predict that Obsidian Team will do this from opposite site: They can add Graph view (or local Graph view) to Bases.

Base: Add a Graph View (put graph view in base's view menu)

Actually, that’s precisely what I had in mind, so my feature request is a duplicate. (I did search for existing requests before submitting this one, but didn’t find anything.)
