    # -------------------------------
    #
    # There's a lot of bits to keep track of for each tree:
    #	nodes
    #	node values
    #	node relationships

    # It would quickly become unwieldy to try to keep these in arrays or lists
    # within the tree namespace itself.  Instead, each tree structure will get
    # its own namespace.  Each namespace contains:
    #	children	array mapping nodes to their children list
    #	parent		array mapping nodes to their parent node
    #	node:$node	array mapping keys to values for the node $node
