I haven't looked at the code, so please correct me if I am off base.
But isn't having iterators which behave like stl iterators the only way
to make the tree work with generic algorithms? I think that your
multi-purpose iterator could be very convenient for the code that is
hardwired to use trees, but I think that it would also be nice if the
other iterators were provided, so that you could for_each over a single
level in the tree, or over the whole tree, etc...
