Absolute versus relative paths

Relative : <command cmd="get" path="[JugglerName]/DpRx:2/VideoTiming"/>

Absolute: <command cmd="get" path="/GroupSet/Group/[JugglerName]/DpRx:2/VideoTiming"/>

It is possible to use a relative path, offering a shortcut for an absolute path. Compere will perform an exhaustive search so there is a performance overhead depending on the extent of the Juggler system. Additionally, multiple results may be returned: searching for "name" will return every absolute path that matches.

The full path is returned in replies, and in commands, the leading / (/GroupSet) is preferred.
