I thought about Zippers, but I understand that they improve _navigating_
in a Tree-like structure, or to refrence _one_ position in a tree.

But if I would deconstruct my tree to the list of _all_ locations, with
> type Loc a = (Tree a, Cxt a)
and then run my algorithm that returns [(Loc a, Info)], it’s still not
clear to me how I can combine all of these locations to get back my
original Tree, annotated with the Info returned.

Thanks nevertheless,
Joachim
