        # Returns options for select.
        # You can exclude some items from the tree.

        #
        # == Params
        #  * +class_or_item+ - Class name or top level times
        #  * +mover+ - The item that is being move, used to exlude impossible moves
        #  * +&block+ - a block that will be used to display: { |item| ... item.name }
        #
        # == Usage
        #
        #   <%= f.select :parent_id, nested_set_options(Category, @category) {|i|
