ok, let's not talk down to others who have good coding practices, even if
they're not your coding practices. It's a good discussion.

Managing the depths the way Ryan does it allows for a lot of control.
getNextHighestDepth can be limiting as you have to predict the appropiate
order of display items which can be problematic in a larger application. But
the manual method sounds even more limiting, labeling depths that not only
are now hard-coded in, but have to be understood and kept track of. I said
it before, order matters, relational depths and not numbers.

I have my own solution, but everyone else I know of uses getNextHighestDepth.
Those who don't are the proud exception.
