1. A method in a data processing system of displaying nodes in a scalable data model, comprising the computer implemented steps of: determining whether a total number of visible nodes in the scalable data model exceeds a first configurable predetermined number; replacing one or more nodes in the scalable data model with an embedded navigation control when the total number of visible nodes exceeds the first configurable predetermined number to automatically partition the scalable data model into one or more subsets, wherein the embedded navigation control is placed in a same position within the scalable data model as the one or more nodes that were replaced, and wherein the embedded navigation control identifies the one or more nodes that were replaced, and wherein the embedded navigation control is selected from a group of embedded navigation controls, and wherein the group of embedded navigation controls consists of a page up navigation control for jumping to a previous page of child nodes marked by an up arrow, a page down navigation control for jumping to a next page of child nodes marked by a down arrow, a level up navigation control for revealing a previous level of parent and sibling nodes marked by a left-up oblique arrow, a level down navigation control for revealing a next level of parent and sibling nodes marked by a right-down oblique arrow, a go to parent navigation control for revealing a parent level that does not include any sibling nodes marked by a left arrow, and a go to children navigation control for revealing a children level that only includes child nodes marked by a right arrow; and replacing one or more child nodes in the scalable data model with the embedded navigation control when a total number of child nodes beneath a given parent node in the data model exceeds a second configurable predetermined number.
