We want a Tree. Actually we are using a checkbox tree. What we are doing is looping through the collection and creating a dynamic object for the branch node and dynamically place a "children" attribute on it and place the correct collection in it. Simply, only about 5-10 lines of code. Certainly don't like looping through the collection, but it works and this is only for setup screens that are not used very often in our application.

Other than that, you'll have to build a custom renderer that has to determine if there are are children for the displayed element to determine if the name or description is displayed (branch or leaf) and behave for each.
