 * Add "items" check to menu to allow showing an entry only if items are
   in the cart. Works for current cart ($Vend::Items) only.
 
+* Optimization for tree-based menus, allow reliable build with
+  [timed-build]. Example:
+
+	[timed-build file=tmp/the_tree minutes=10 force=1]
+	[menu	name=the_tree
+			menu-type=tree
+			js-prefix=the_tree_
+			timed=1
+	][/menu]
+	[/timed-build]
+	[menu open-script=1 js-prefix="the_tree_"/]
+
+  This allows the tree to retain its opened status without having to
+  build a different timed-build file for every combination.
+
+  Now tree and flyout menus should be easily usable in a catalog without
+  worrying about processor power.
+
+* Add configurability for the open/collapse/explode variable. Before this,
+  you could only have one tree per page and have it keep the open status. Now:
+
+  	[menu name=foo menu-type=tree js_prefix=foo open_variable=foo_open][/menu]
+
+  	[menu name=bar menu-type=tree js_prefix=bar open_variable=bar_open][/menu]
+
+  will work for the appropriate menu. (The other will collapse.)
+
 * Don't add .html extension if file already has extension.
