The only possibility I know is currently to use different trees (just copy
them). Not very nice but should work.

If no one has a better solution it could be added in a future version to
also pass the window-handle. There is still room for additional parameters I
guess.

What does the last parameter ('parent') contain?


Is there a possibility in the bugtracker to add feature-requests?
