Hi,

Is there a general purpose, performant tree data structure in Emacs Lisp?

I mainly need the ability to

1) Query for the children of a node.
2) Query for the parent of a node.
3) Store an integer at every node of the tree including the leaves.
4) Given a node walk through the sub-tree rooted at it printing the
   sequence of nodes from the root to a leaf every time a leaf is
   encountered.

I saw `avl-tree' but I don't want to balance the tree in any way. Maybe,
it's best to just build my own set of functions that use cons cells. I
would rather prefer to use an already existing library if there is
one. How does `org-mode' accomplish this?
