Hello,

I have just started out with qooxdoo. Seems like a really nice framework!
Great work!
Unfortunately, I'm stuck with a problem now. One that I can't find the
solution to in the documentation. I've been reading through the
documentation the last couple of days.

I'm using qooxdoo desktop.
I want to load data into a tree, and modify the icons, set a context menu to
each item and be able to give other components some of the data. And also be
able to select a item in the tree from an id(internal id from the webservice
that is exposed in the model) and expand the tree so it's visible.

I'm using the tree controller to load the data.

I have written some example code(http://tinyurl.com/plhuszt) that I hope
will show what I want to do.

My questions are written as comments in the example, but a short gist of it
follows:
* What is the proper way of selecting a item in the tree and expanding it so
it's visible? Eg. from a query parameter with the id.
* What is the proper way of setting an icon from a value of a propery in the
model? setIconPath/Options or in the delegate?
* What is the proper way of setting context dependent context menues to
items? Eg. different types of items should have different context menues.
* How should I communicate my data from the model to other classes? Eg.
context menu opens a window with a file. Should load file contents using the
id.
* Do I use bindItem for "storing" my model data in the tree. Or is that the
wrong way?

If there is anything else I can do to ask better questions, please tell me!  

Hopefully there is someone who can point me in the right direction.
Keep up the good work!

Regards,
Fredrik
