  12  
  13  * Sortable trees [thx Sammi Williams, sammi@oriontransfer.co.nz]
  14    - Added functional test (test/functional/sortable_tree_test.html)
  15    - removed greedy option
  16    - modified the way Droppables.show works - added affected list
  17    - added Droppables.findDeepestChild
  18    - modified Sortable.options to work for trees
  19    - modified Sortable.onEmptyHover with additional logic to insert
  20      the element at a certain place according to the overlap
  21    - modified Sortable.onHover to avoid DOM Exceptions
  22    - modified Sortable.create to support the creation of Sortable trees
  23    - added two convenience functions - Sortable.findElements and 
  24      Sortable.findTreeElements
  25    - Added Sortable.tree (and a number of private functions to facilitate it)
  26      Returns a tree structure:
  27        var root = {
  28          id: null,
  29          parent: null,
  30          children: <children>,
  31          container: <sortable element>,
  32        }
  33        var child = {
  34          parent: <node>,
  35          children: <array>,
  36          id: <string> (as per options.format),
  37          element: <element>,
  38          container: <element>,
  39          position: <integer>
  40        }
  41      This is intended to become part of the public API, and can be used to manipulate
  42      the tree programatically.
  43    - Modified Sortable.serialize to use Sortable.tree when set in the options.
