I guess I should be clearer about the structure I'm looking at here:
- Root
- Parent
- Child1
- Child2
- Child21
- Child22
- Child23
Suppose that each of (Child21, Child22, Child23) are all tagged with
"Parent", in addition to being tagged with "Child2" (so they fit there
under the hierarchy). I don't want those three grandchildren to *also* show
up directly under "Parent". Does that make sense?
