[Betternestedset-talk] root with scope?

[Stephen Schor]

Hi Peter,

My table contains multiple roots using scope. I've never really called .root
on the class.
I've sometimes wanted to find the root of an instance by calling
my_instance.root to return
the top-most ancestor or my_instance.

Also - looking at the comments of .root in the SingletonMethods module -
there's this info...

  # Returns the single root for the class (or just the first root, if there
are several).
  # Deprecation note: the original acts_as_nested_set allowed roots to have
parent_id = 0,
  # so we currently do the same. This silliness will not be tolerated in
future versions, however.

I hope this is helpful to you.

-Stephen
