Well, the method that is called when a node is selected is the 
valueChanged() method (mine is shown below). I've never tried this but 
if you can manually call the getTreeCellRendererComponent() within 
valueChanged() then that may provide what you need.

public void valueChanged(TreeSelectionEvent evt) {
	Node tmp = (Node)evt.getPath().getLastPathComponent();
	tmp.removeAllChildren();				
	LDAPMgr.ldapUtility.listNodes(tmp, tmp.getDN());
	model.setWorkingPath(tmp.getDN());
}
