boolean	getHasChildren() Returns true if this non-leaf node has child nodes.
String	getId() Returns a string Id for the node that uniquely identifies it.
String	getLabel() Returns a textual label for the node.
T	getValue() Returns the value represented by this node.
boolean	isLeaf() If true, then this node is a leaf node, which never has children (i.e., a file).
