Ah sorry...what I meant was to have both begin-of-tree and end-of-tree
elements in the path list, so one of them is real and the other
synthetic. Right now you have an end-of-tree real path in the list of
paths, yes.

OK - I see that you have a new version [1] and hopefully I'll be able to
take a look soon.
