Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When opening the lineage view in the Elementary Report, the exposures are spread out

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if they were put in a folder called "exposures" just like the models and sources are. So when you click it, it opens up och shows all exposures.

I'll share a screenshot here of the other two folders, and the spread of exposures underneath.

Hi @christopherekfeldt !

Today we don't support showing all exposures under "exposures", however, you can set the platform meta attribute and exposures will be nested under it:

meta:
    platform: Tableau

And the exposures will be nested under it. We made this decision to treat these objects as external to the database, and to support more than one external system.

(I'm not necessarily against nesting under exposures by default but just writing our reasoning here)

Actually @christopherekfeldt after discussing with the team I realized that it's actually a bug. The default should be exposures.
Will update here when we have a fix for it.
