Hey introvert, you're on the right track. You definitely want to avoid putting view- specific code into your model, so, yes, rendering this content is up to helper methods or classes. For example, to render trees, I have a class that takes a nested set (something that implements IteratorAggregate) as argument and returns a ul/li list. If you're stuck writing such a class, I can probably send you mine.. just not sure if it works as it may be a bit propel specific.
