The bit I am missing is where I don't find TL, TI, TP, TS in an HTML spec.
So, I presume this is markup you have invented yourself and for some reason
the browser doesn't care (interprets it as a span) and applies some custom
css to it? I never knew this was possible / allowed.

I think it is more intuitive to know there's a <span class="nodetree"/>
wrapped around it and then be able to style that with paddings margins
backgrounds and what not rather than to have to do this all the time...
{{nodetree{
&&parent&&
%chilc
%child
}}}

I wouldn't bother. I tried for 10 minutes, thought... well, of course, it's
not that simple... and didn't want to bother inenting it. End of borders
for me.
Best wishes, Tobias.
