Hi Joao,

Yes, this patch is related to browser tree issue, In this patch we have fixed some issues with 'onUpdateTreeNode' function to handle some corner cases for server & server-group nodes, Current code for 'onAddTreeNode', 'onUpdateTreeNode', 'onRefreshTreeNode' functions for browser tree is coupled with their respective inner function calls and recursive in nature due to aciTree API implementation for making function calls in orderly manner.

@Ashesh,

Any thoughts on this?

I'm obviously not Ashesh, but in general, I agree with what Joao suggests - treeview related code should be refactored into testable modules, that are independent of the tree (for the most part) whenever it makes sense to do so, and tests added to aid future replacement of aciTree/Backbone. That said, if it's not feasible in a given case, then we should go ahead and fix the existing code. 

In this case, I'm leaning towards the view that this code is too tightly coupled with aciTree to be worth changing more than necessary. What do you guys think?
