Can a Tree Grid model an Entity with Embedded Objects?

[jpappalardo]

I would like to create a TreeGrid to model the structure on my entity, and I am curious if this capability is currently supported?

@Entity
public class Person {
     @Id
     @GeneratedValue
     private long id;

     @Embedded
     private Name name;

     @ElementCollection
     @CollectionTable
     Set<Phone> phones;

     @ElementCollection
     @CollectionTable
     Set<Address> addresses;
}

Is it possible to setup a TreeGrid such that I could see a List of Person Objects that then has the Embedded Objects as child nodes? All of the examples appear to assume that child records are identical to the parent record in structure.

Directly using this bean structure would require having tree.childrenProperty be different at each level of the tree, which Tree does not currently support.

This just means you need a data transform somewhere in the process (DMI, DataSource.transformResponse, etc) that makes your bean structure into a uniform structure that uses consistent property names at each level.
