I heard that Rachel had a prototype to simplify some of the work in
setting up that widget, but this is only a rumor.

Personally, I think that having a simple model for the treeview would be
fantastic.  You could think of two:

	* A simple store, where you just dump the data in, and let the
	  widget take care of it.

	* An OOish design, one where you could derive from a `Node' 
	  structure, and have it provide the data on demand.
