That's a part of what I have in mind too :p But won't read the paper you=
  =

mention, because I don't want to be influenced by others ideas on that  =

topic, to avoid to unconsciously repeat what others already did.

Since some time I'm thinking again I should try to do one applying the  =

idea I have in mind. The hybrid ascent-descent is indeed an option, whil=
e  =

  =

as the humans read, and humans, the most of the time, start looking at t=
he  =

tiny parts (the bottom) and goes bottom=E2=80=91up, and just occasionall=
y go  =

top=E2=80=91down, and so just when there is a clear marker for this, lik=
e a  =

heading title in a text as an example and any other marker which only  =

appears at the top of a construct.
