I get the impression that you're advocating automatic sync (upload) to online trees. That's dangerous, particularly for shared trees. In fact, FamilySearch doesn't allow automatic writes. I believe the review process in RootsMagic for sending changes up to FamilySearch is largely mandated by FamilySearch.

I like it. It's similar to the system fs-traversal uses to construct relationship paths. https://github.com/genealogysystems/fs-traversal
