OpenLayers' layer switcher does not support layer hierarchy and will
probably never do. I'd recommend checking out the layer tree of
MapFish (http://www.mapfish.org). MapFish layer tree is either
auto-configured based on the layers configured in OpenLayers or
configured through a user-specified model. See
<http://demo.mapfish.org/mapfishsample/trunk/examples/tree/tree_automatic.html>
for a basic example.

Cheers,
