I suspect so. 

Dancer wants to lift a whole branch of an N-ary tree and move it 
elsewhere in the tree. (basically, to move the data from one 
section to another, without deconstructing the current branch
and making a new one - just move the pointer that points to 
the branch.)

*I* couldn't figure out a way to do that within an N-ary tree (other
than also changing the 'where in the tree am I' stuff). I 
was wondering if anyone else could.
