    children of node
  - model
```
IModel<T> model(T object)
```
    Callback used by the consumer of this tree provider to wrap objects retrieved from getRoots() or getChildren(Object) with a model (usually a detachable one).
    Important note: The model must implement Object.equals(Object) and Object.hashCode() !

    object - the object that needs to be wrapped
    
    Returns:
    
    the model representation of the object
