     Tree *traversal* is a good recursion example, but I can't
think of a good a priori reason to *search* recursively in an
ordinary ordered tree.  Maybe in a different sort of tree where
you sometimes pursue multiple branches instead of choosing just
one ...  But that seems more complicated than Quicksort.
