Depends on what you're trying to do, and what you mean by "tip". I'd 
suggest this is a perfect case for an attribute -- use something like 
<directory name="whatever"> elements to build your directory tree 
representation. (It could of course be done with a <name> child of the 
<directory> element, but that wouldn't be as natural a way to express it 
or manipulate it.)
