Answer 1

Separating iteration over tree from search may be beneficial if there are other tasks you want to do on all items. I.e. if you implement IEnumerable over the tree items you can use LINQ queries to search for anything you want or perform other operations on all tasks in you tree. Check out Implementing IEnumerable on a tree structure for a way to do so.
