ViewConfigNode has a quite different purpose -> we can't just expose it
(for such use-cases).
-> we would need to add more complexity (new api + re-building the tree)
and the benefit is more cosmetic for the use-case(s) we know so far.
(+ there isn't even a real difference in view of the performance.)

gerhard
