gallery diagram

Is it possible to get a page that shows my galleries in an hierarchical diagram?

Category1
___ sub cat1
___ sub-cat2
___ sub-cat3
(I put in leading spaces, but the dgrin editor took them out)

Or even better, a completely rolled out version of the text gathered for the great new drop down that appears in "choose a gallery" on the smart gallery rules page.

I don't have any desire to present something like that to the public viewers of my smugmug presence, but I desperately need a tool that presents that information to me for my own use in shuffling things around to best effect. Does something like this exist? And if so, how do I get to it?

    The thumbs on any category, sub-cat page can be sorted anyway you want. Auto or manually.

    Yes, I have done that. But that's only a display of the top categories or of just the sub-categories within a category, or of the albums within a sub-category. I need something that shows all of them together.

    I'm looking for information rather than a tool for doing the arranging and such. Those tools work well enough, but I need a report on the current organization of my galleries. Or a site map.

    The attached image shows the information I am looking for. But I am looking for a report or page that displays all of this, rather than having to wander up and down the tree, only being able to see one branch at a time.

    Having coded similar multi-layer drop downs in my previous work, I know that it is not that difficult to unroll this and output to a CSV file, for example. That would work for me, but I suspect I am not the only one who would like to be able to take in the whole thing on one display, even when scrolling would be required. I'd be happy with a jpg dropped in an appropriate place in my galleries that I can download to Lightroom for looking at.
