Uh, I don't think so.  As I said wxTreeCtrl has it's own DoGetBestSize, 
so the one in wxWindowBase will never be called for it.  Also, a 
treectrl with no items will not need to display the scrollbars anyway. 
I do notice that InvalidateBestSize is not being called when new items 
are being added to the tree however, but that is a separate issue...

Here is a quicky PyCrust session to show that a treectrl never has a 0,0 
best size, and that it adapts when there is content added:

  >>> r = t.AddRoot("Root Item")
  >>> i = t.AppendItem(r, "child item")
  >>> t.GetBestSize()
  wx.Size(100, 30)
  >>>
