Customize tree component

I was wondering if I can change the font style, weight, color, etc of an individual node within MM’s tree component. I know you can use setStyle to change all elements, but I want to try to narrow it down to certain nodes. Also on a side note I was wondering if the tree component will render text as html. I am loading the content from an xml file. I was wondering if there is a way to have some of the nodes in the document render bold in the tree component. Thanks

Edit: I have found more info on what I would like to do and it involves the use of the CellRenderer API. I’ve been searching for a while and it looks pretty tough to use with the tree component. Does anyone here have any good advice on this subject?
