Issues with `__getitem__` about treelib HOT 2 CLOSED

It's a history for me to use Django. So I can just confirm your problem from above. But I don't think it much convenience to access dict using . operation, as you said, explicit better than implicit.

Its great to be compatible with Django by disable_getitem option. And the similar functionality has already been implemented by get_node(self, nid). It would be better if u can make a reliable test and a pull about the compatibility. Thanks ahead~ :)

Getitem is for the brackets ([]), not for the dot. Which would mean that you can't access your nodes using tree[node_id] anymore.

I'll provide a pull request for an optional disable_getitem option, if you want you can make it the default.
