Treeview Key Property alternatives? (Half Resolved)

[RealisticGraphics]

Is anyone else as fustrated as I am with the removal of the "key" property off of the Node object? What alternatives have you been using?

I thought about using the Tag property, but that doesn't really accomplish much because I can not retrieve the node by the Tag property, unless of course if I loop through each node to determine where it is and grab the index. This is not very efficient obviously.

Say for example you had to load a ton of data, maybe an entire domain of more than 25,000 users plus security groups each user is attached to (not what I'm doing but something done in the past). Hopefully you can see where this would be a problem.

Anybody have some good ways around this. I've seen a few people creating their own class that is inheriting either the node object or the tree object but none of them seem to be for this specific problem.

Thanks for any insight on what you are doing.
