* The code base is compiled for multiple platforms.  Currently I cannot find the functions which are defined on ARM unless we use a search as we used to do on MXR.

* DXR gives a nice contextual navigation, but the size of the code base is overwhelming to have a clear understanding of what is going on.  One of the thing that I am looking at in general is to understand the conditionals which are giving a particular result, or the consequences of a statement. Such overview is hard to get when you have ~30 DXR tabs opened.  I would love to have a graph overview of these relations, as well as seeing the conditionals/guards as part of the graph.

* Clicking on macros seem to lead to some results, but definitely not the one I'd expect - the definition of the macro.
* Trying to find files is hard. (Still haven't figured out how to get easily from the main page to Navigator.cpp on dom/base)
* "cycleCollection" on the right side may or may not do something useful. In most cases it just ignores all the stuff, so it might be better to not have it at all.
* How to mark certain range of code on particular revision?
