No, Microcosms have only 1 level of nesting... within the site.
Whilst familiarity with existing software tends to suggest we should include support for hierarchies of Microcosms, it's well-known that most users find hierarchies to be a difficult concept. This is pretty much why Apple try and hide the whole concept of a file system on iOS devices, hierarchies actually aren't easy, intuitive concepts.
So what we're going to try and champion, is the thought of Microcosms being a list, no different from how the items within a Microcosm are a list.
People get lists, and they like them.
So we're pushing that as the key concept unless we get really strong feedback from users (rather than people who wish to become admins) that this is not the right path.
