TreeTable connector

Hi,
I was wondering is there a way to make connectors work in a TreeTable just like in a Tree ? (i mean those dotted lines between parent and his children)
Tried to use the style BaseTheme.TREE_CONNECTORS but it will not work.
If I'll have to do it on my own with css - could you give me some hints on how to do it ?

Hi,

This is a good feature request, but I think we're too busy currently working on Vaadin 7 that this would get in the next minor release.

Anyhow, you should be able to add at least some dotted lines to the v-treetable-treespacer elements before the first cell content (use a background-image with background-position). Unfortunately there's no way of knowing which row is the last one of a given parent, so you can't really show when a section closes.
