Description

### Problem

Tree views lack any sort of divider between rows, meaning large horizontal visual gaps inhibit legibility in table formats like in files.

### Proposal

Alternate the color of the row background (perhaps between Silver 100 and Silver 300) to allow easier delineation of rows.

### Prior Art (Optional)
