[platform-swt-dev] Need ComponentTree made of ComponentTreeItem

Please excuse me if this is not the right mailing list.
I am mailing here after searching for about 2 full days on the net and did not get anything much useful.
(User forums are no good too. I have not got replies even to slightly complex questions :( )


Current Tree/Table do not support arbitrary components to be placed inside
TreeItems. For example, there is no way to create the following:


- Item 1
   - Item 11
        ------------------------------
       |  ----------     ----------   |
       | | Button 1 |   | Button 3 |  |
       |  ----------     ----------   |
       |  ----------                  |
       | | Button 2 |                 |
       |  ----------                  |
        ------------------------------
+ Item 2
- Item 3
   - Item 4
        ------------------------------
       |  ----------     ----------   |
       | | Button 5 |   | Button 4 |  |
       |  ----------     ----------   |
        ------------------------------
+Item 5

ComponentTree should be made of ComponentTreeItems.
ComponentTreeItem should have a 
method like setControl(Component c) which can
allow any arbitrary Component to be displayed inside
the item.

Such a tree would be really very helpful and powerful.

I submitted a bugzilla:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=310173
But they pointed me to the nebula project.
Nebula project for Grid etc. is not really the same as described above and I do not want to write the above widget myself as it will be a huge effort in itself.
Any ideas where I can get the above widget?

Thanks a lot in advance!!
