> Currently the graph editor uses the full selector path. Always using the full selector path may seem the safest path but it can have serious performance implications for Smooks. A binding with a short selector is resolved faster then one with a long selector. It would be better if the graph editor would use the shortest unique selector path. 
> Example:
> <order>
>    <customer>
>       <id>432</id>
>    </customer>
>     <order-items>
>         <order-item>
>             <id>111</id>
>             <quantity>2</quantity>
>             <price>8.90</price>
>         </order-item>
>     </order-items>
> </order>
> If you would bind the 'id' element of order-item to some bean then currently the following path would be generated by the graph editor: order order-items order-item id
> If the graph editor would generate the shortest unique path, then it would be: order-item id
