Why not go from the top down instead of the bottom up?

Perhaps I do have a bigger issue (actually, I have LOTS of issues ;-), but the 
reason I need to know the depth is my thought was to use that as a means of 
assisting in layout.... for example, say you have the follwing xml:

<person name="Ted" title="director of the world">
      <person name="Bob" title="deputy director of the world">
            <person name="Jim" title="Manager - North America">
                   <person name="Sampson" title="Lead - Western States"/>
                   <person name="Sophia" title="Lead - Eastern States"/>
            </person>
            <person name="Sally" title="Manager - South America"/>
            <person name="Sarah" title="Manager - Africa"/>
     </person>
</person>

And you used this to create an organizational flow chart... my thought was to 
use the depth to figure out where the names should go... I have thought about 
how to do this 12,002 ways so my head is getting muddled....
