For this particular tree structure, I don't think you'd have to rename
all tags.

   root
     root.a
      a.Jonas
      a.Silas
        Silas.Bod
     root.b
      b.Coraline
      b.OtherMother

where the dot notation indicates:

    tagname(parent branch).node(leaf).name

Then to move "Bod" to "OtherMother" would only require renaming the
"Silas" tag on "OtherMother" to "Coraline" :

   root
     root.a
      a.Jonas
      a.Silas
     root.b
      b.Coraline
      b.OtherMother
        OtherMother.Bod

Or to then move the entire "a" branch below "Coraline", just change
the "root" tag on "a" to "Coraline" :

   root
     root.b
      b.Coraline
        Coraline.a
          a.Jonas
          a.Silas
      b.OtherMother
        OtherMother.Bod

But I'm new at this, so may be missing some more complicated
situation.

Its the dragging and dropping that worries me, since its not in the
library and would probably require wading through the treeview code.
What could be feasible is to put a button or link on each branch for
cutting. Click on the button to cut, and then click on another branch
button to paste. The tags get renamed, and when its sorted out, the
branch or leaf has been moved.

Thanks,
Mark
