Duplicate element in template Builder

Hi,

I have tree template that uses this RDF

b -- a
c -- a

which renders in template :

a
|- b
|- c

When I these triples to my RDF add :

d -- b
d -- c

I expect that my template will return :

a
|- b
| |- d
|
|- c
|- d

But It won't. It displays :

a
|- b
| |- d
|
|- c

It seems that duplicate resources are filtered. After some googling,
I've found the coalesceDuplicateArcs property/attribute, and setting it
to true/false do not change anything

Is there a way to get what I'm expecting ?

This is now true for trees, unfortunately. (Mozilla used to have Smart
Find bookmarks. These stopped working for other reasons some time ago,
and now that duplicate resources are filtered they'll never work.)

Duplicate resource filtering should be optional, or at least offer a way
to opt-out.

And why this decision as been made ? I mean, why this hasn't been kept
in an optional behavior ? This broke my application.

I've some experience in C/C++, enough to read and understand what's
happening in most part of the mozilla source code, do you think that it
is possible (and easy) to cancel the filter part ? and/or propose an
addition (as a new flag, or attribute) that could help toggle this
behavior on or off ?

If you have any sources/document/bugreports that discuss this topic,
I'll be glab to read it. any pointer to source code that could light
my bubble ;)

Support of duplicate elements in trees didn't work very well. The
reworking of templates to support non-rdf sources didn't add the feature
as it was too difficult to implement.

To support it would require implementing bug 327473 for the tree
builder, and without increasing the size of the data structures used.
