I'll try to get time to browse through the source code in a day or two, 
but one question I have right off is what is the relationship between 
this and CustomTreeCtrl code?  Does it reuse that code in some way? 
(Derive from, embed, sibling, etc.)  Or is it a complete 
reimplementation that just adds columns to the tree like 
gizmos.TreeListCtrl is a reimplementation of the generic wxTreeCtrl class?

IIRC that was the main reason that wxTreeListCtrl was never moved into 
the core wxWidgets, because it duplicated and slightly modified all of 
the treectrl code instead of refactoring so they both could share the 
common code.
