Hmmm... right. Then it's a little less powerful than I thought, I guess.

If they were chained by their respective PathParts then you could have
many different chain roots, each possibly accepting a different number
arguments, which would be followed by the same endpoint. Thus,
reusability would be improved.

But I didn't really use it yet so I can't really tell if, in practice,
this feature would prove itself useful or not. Right now, it seemed to
be (at least for me).

Thanks for the clarification.
