Kind of issue

Missing information

Issue description

I'm not sure if this is a component issue or a docs issue. Essentially the treeview component has default behaviours which differ from that which you typically find in a treeview component. I'm speaking about node selection. I'm used to a treeview component that, when a parent node is selected, auto selects the child nodes underneath. And by turn, when nodes are deselected, the parent nodes get deselected.

I've found out that it's possible to implement this manually and have blogged about it here:

Would it be useful to add this directly to the documentation, for those that might not happen on my blog? I'd be happy to submit a PR. Or if you're happy linking to my blog, please feel free to.

This looks like a duplicate of #12883 to me. As I understand things, current behavior isn't final, we did a first pass just to get something out but it will change.
