Owner

The Asset Editor lists every animation in one flat scrolling list (now scrollable, but still ~46+ rows). With human / creature/ / effect / static / land / gump all mixed together, it's hard to navigate.

Proposal

A collapsible tree view grouped by namespace:

human/            (walk_0..4, stand_0..4, attack_0..4)
creature/
  critter/
  dummy/
effect/           (fireball_projectile, fireball_explosion)
static/           (tree_0, item_coin, item_sword)
land/
gump/

Groups collapse/expand; selecting a leaf shows it in the preview. Split name on / to build the tree.

Broader UI/UX pass (owner)

While at it, revisit the editor's usability overall — clearer layout, search/filter, keyboard nav, maybe frame thumbnails. Scope TBD.

Definition of Done

Assets are shown as a namespace tree with collapse/expand; navigation to any leaf is quick even with 100+ entries.
Selecting a leaf previews it as today (animation playback + frame info + replace/save).
