Description changed by jng:

Old description:

> The TreeViewAdv control offers multi-selection of tree nodes. However
> this functionality is only used by the Site Explorer and is not required
> in any of the editor controls.
>
> For the sake of ensuring maximum compatibility with Mono (and removing
> the Aga.Controls.dll dependency when using the Maestro.Editors assembly),
> we should use the vanilla WinForms TreeView for editors which currently
> use the TreeViewAdv control.

New description:

 The TreeViewAdv control presents some problems with the Resource Picker in
 that it is not known (impossible?) to set an initial starting point, this
 makes some commands like "Save As" a bit cumbersome as you cannot specify
 a suggested save point thus requiring manual drilldowns to the specific
 folder (which is definitely cumbesome for deeply nested folder structures)

 By reverting to a vanilla TreeView, this can be done much easier
