Stratify With Fake Root

[emeeks]

Is it possible for stratify to recognize when a network has multiple root nodes but is otherwise a hierarchical network? Say I send an edge list where the only hierarchical rules violation is that there are multiple roots, could stratify just return a fake root with children being all the valid roots stratify discovers?

I had the same situation... I just manually created a 'fake' root node that had an appropriate parent id

This feels like a duplicate of #105. Having a loose version of d3.stratify would be fine on an opt-in basis. Currently the way to opt-in is to define the fake root explicitly, but you could submit a PR that allows this to be done automatically if configured.
