#1 do you think "path" is a good name, or will people confuse that with
"getdir"? probably [searchpath] would be more meaningful.

#2 how does this object relate to the quest to eliminate path settings
alltogether? i thought "-path" is really only for nerds like me who feel
unable to use standard paths :-)

#3 could anybody tell me why [declare] does not take immediate effect?
