I haven't added it back actually, I didn't have your text at home in an electronic version, only the print.

The root is the root used in the real database, not in our virtual database. So you can have /global from a database, /client/$(ARCH) from another and both will be in the root of the virtual database. The databases will overlap each other, and the order defines from which database you get to see the data.
