Okay, bad choice of words.  I should have said "writeups a particular monk had personally originated as opposed to merely responded to."  But yes, you are correct that I was thinking of "root nodes".  I still think it might be nice to have them stand out (in a separate color) but still included with all writeups for a given monk, like this:
