I think it starts with the TreeStructureAdvisor. This tells which nodes
has children, then IObservableFactory should return an observable for
the parent of the virtual node, which can produce the children. This is
the tricky part, as the Virtual node is not in the model Hierarchy, so
you would need to fake it somehow, perhaps a ComputedList/Set would do
the trick? It could return a collection of children representing the
virtual node.(Which I assume is a POJO?). For the POJO virtual node, you
could do the same, but it would then hook in to your Model hierarchy
(The real children of the parent).
It's a bit of out-loud thinking, not trialed and proved, but could
perhaps help you a bit?

Take a look at E4-XMI-Editor code it produces virtual nodes. It is part
of the e4.tools repo.
