Generalizes object blending and the concept of parentage to allow for later support

of inheritance hierarchies, as well as making more data available to koan and the kickstart
templating engine.

With this change, any variable in the tree (anywhere), is now accessible via Cheetah -- and
the same goes for koan XMLRPC.

Unit tests pass and looks okay on the outside, though this still warrants extended testing
to verify no unintended behaviors have changed.
