Just wanted to mention, that there document stores, where one
TraversableSource can have multiple ParentSources. For example
unix hardlinks, document managment systems with some sort of collections.
and one document being in more than one collection. Document
having meaning of a single file and Collection having the
meaning of folder which has files.
(Yes, this really sets your mind twisting, if you have to deal with
stuff like this)

So there should be a convenience method named getParentSource()
(or similar) which just returns the first parent (most of the
times there will be only one) and another way of accessing the
other parents.




Regards,


Jens
