I think the implied question was "Given that this works if I don't use an explicit path, why isn't there a way for it to work when I do want to give an explicit path? (Now that explicit paths work at all.)" Where "this works" means having a function name with a slash in it. I think it's a rather rare case that we may not want to bother with, but we've bothered with all sorts of other rarities. --1413522991-621873161-1484778373=:4560--
