[jug-discussion] Tree with multiple expandable "roots"?

[Tim Colson]

A standard tree looks like so:
--
-root 
 + item1
 + item2
  - sub a
  - sub b
 + item3

I'd prefer to NOT show the root node, but have the others.
-
+ item1
+ item2
 - sub a
 - sub b
+ item3

I tried : tree.setRootVisible(false); 

It hid the root like I wanted and 1st level kids are shown; however, none of
the kids are expandable. 

What'd I miss?

Perhaps not the most elegant, but that approach worked. Still curious if
others have alternative suggestions.

Now the tree needs sorted.  

Question: 
a) Sort before loading into the tree? 
 or
b) Sort after the tree is loaded?

I can do (a) relatively easily by having each item return the list of
children in sorted order.

But (b) has appeal since I could theorhetically add more items anywhere, and
then have the tree resort itself. It does not look like the API has anything
ready-built for this... seems I'd have to manually remove and insert nodes
to sort them. Am I missing any convenience stuff, or just a case of "it is
what it is"?

P.S. For the curious, I'm parsing FAQ-O-Matic data files.
