I don't understand why I haven't seen this myself when I am working with tree2. I'd like to understand more about what is happening behind the scenes here. I hope to take a closer look tomorrow (Monday.) I saw your fix in JIRA. It looks good. I'm going to hold off adding it until I can understand why this is happening (otherwise I will get lazy and stop thinking about it.) > Rob sean
