I don't remember the code being that difficult, but then I haven't worked on it for a while?
IIRC, the path originally was setup lazily, except for the now obsolete jar handler
that went through every entry up-front?

I don't understand why you can't fall back to getParent().getParent().etc.
at the worst?

Sounds like a simple solution, but maybe not so good on memory usage?

Besides this, I don't know? :-)

The original design(s) - it's been few a couple of iterations - were
mostly described in the forums. I don't know that anybody has collected the 
implementation details into a more formal document?
