Wondering what would be so unique about some navigation that would
mean you would have to go direct to the tables?

All of the API functions are able to return "everything" that is in
the tables.  And you can literally get a full dump of the data if you
go from a high node (like root) and ask for all levels.  I have done
that before just to find out how it all hangs together.

I have custom nav's built that add stuff to what is already there
(like desktop's, admin only items, etc. that don't actually appear in
the tree at all) as well as combining several branches from different
nav roots.  All without going direct to the database.

I haven't been able to think of anything that you couldn't do with the
API that is there.  That is not to say that I dont do things that
could be better served by extending the API - but I am not convinced
that my requirements are "common" enough to warrant asking for
changes.  And it's CFMX - so I can just inherit the Tree class and add
my few bits on if I really want to.

Regards,
Gary
