// list implementation, to store the items.
// @note The class has no virtual functions on purpose to reduce the size
// of the items as DtGroups use DtSimpleLists to hold their children, which
// means at least one DtSimpleListItem for every polygon and other node in the 
// scene, which adds up for large scenes.
