Gaea's portal, to avoid reaalllly long node connexions.

Gaea has a feature where you can just give a name to any node output, and then select that name in any node input, so basically it's a teleporter, that allows to remove these freaking highways when you have connections between nodes two kilometers apart in your node trees. It's really elegant, currently any node tree will easily have these very long connections in blender:

In Houdini еIt's a Null Object! Not only can he "Teleport" Geometry inside an Object (Geometry Context) It can be transferred to another Object by Object Merge., I really miss this feature in Blender.

some particle software recentlly added that too, personally i prefer houdini where you end a node tree on an empty and then you can reference that empty from other nodes, but its very far from geonodes way of doing things so portals make more sense here

Currently the wayaround is to use nodegroups... But without an addon, that's a lot of extra clicks.
