Comment(by bill):

 Cool, that's looking good.   Could you possibly write an automated test
 for this, probably just expanding/following the model of
 dijit/tests/Tree.html?

 I think also we need to add a path attribute for documentation purposes
 and so that markup like below works:

 {{{
 <div dojoType=dijit.Tree path="['Foods', 'Fruits', 'Citrus']">
 }}}

 (I guess _setPathAttr() should accept id's as well as items)

 Other notes:
   * getNodesByItem: an easier way of copying an array is
 [].concat(oldArray).
   * _setPathAttr: you can use {{{path.shift()}}} rather than
 {{{splice(0,1)[0]}}}
   * For _getPathAttr(): rather than {{{splice()}}}, you can just call
 {{{ary.unshift(val);}}}
   * oh, our coding standards say to have spaces around > and = and == (and
 ===), and after //
