RE: __data__ object

Alex,

There is one thing I have not quite understood about the data structure
required by __data__: why the "nwComponent"/ "nwSubcomponent" part in the
retrieved array? Couln'd nW parse the data structure into "real" associative
arrays within associative arrays, like,

{ foo:"bar", foo2: { foo3:"bar", foo4:"baz"}, ....}

So that I could call data.foo2.foo3 instead of data.
nwComponents.subComponent[0].foo3 ?
