true.. we have to start somewhere. It takes some time to have a couple of
good example definitions, and i'm sure it will reveal missing bits. I'm
interested to hear your experience.

There is currently nothing foreseen to handle that kind of redundancy.
Still it's possible to describe such messages. To me it looks like a
/foo/bar i would be easier to handle. I wouldn't go so far and say that
kind of API (enumerated path') is just not well designed.
