What about

        lisp/tree-widget/tree-widget.el

for the code and

        lisp/tree-widget/default/
        lisp/tree-widget/theme1/
        lisp/tree-widget/theme2/

etc for the various theme directories.
Then everything would be "self-contained".

The lisp/tree-widget directory would automatically be added to the
load-path.

Well, toolbar icons are in lisp/toolbar, so there is precedence for
having "support files" in lisp.

An alternative approach is to define those images directly in lisp
like gdb-ui.el does.
