Comment (by DD32):

 {{{
 $args[0]['has_children'] = ( empty(
 $children_elements[$element->$id_field] ) ) ? false : true;
 }}}

 Eugh.. Can i just say i'm sick of if statements(let alone condensed if
 statements) with boolean return values.. I can understand for something
 complex, But seriously:

 {{{
 $args[0]['has_children'] = ! empty(
 $children_elements[$element->$id_field] );
 }}}

 reads much cleaner to me.

 Sorry for the mini rant.. Its just a small anoyance of mine :) (aside from
 extra brackets around boolean questions)
