v.net.spanningtree considers all internal nodes of the network. See also

Ok, thanks. So, one would need to "disconnect" lines at non-selected nodes for this to work.

And maybe some clarification on what is meant by "nodes" in the sentence "A spanning tree is a minimum cost subnetwork connecting all nodes in an undirected network" in the man page might help future users.
