[FEATURE REQUEST] Workflow Control Logic Should be Represented in the GUI #9721

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I think adding the ability to do Workflow Control in Postman is one of the biggest things not yet in the tool that, if done correctly, could really take it to the next level. As it stands Workflows for a Collection are defined in code and hidden away in either the Pre-request Test or Test tabs. Therefore deriving, changing, or adding/removing to the Workflow is non-trivial and the behavior, as such, is hidden away and is non-obvious when you are running any Collection.

Describe the solution you'd like
I propose for Workflow Control to be bubbled up to the GUI in a fashion such that it is inherent in the appearance of a Collection the execution order and the jumping around, branching off in logic, or looping that may occur.

Describe alternatives you've considered
There are presently no alternatives than defining, in code, the Workflow orchestration.

Additional context
If you look at a tool like JMeter you can see they have very sophisticated Workflow orchestration that are built visually. For example (looping and conditionals):
