Had a look at this, but have decided it's not really worth it. This kind of thing should be picked up in testing in any case.

Issues:

  1. No way of telling whether the path has to exist or not if doing it like this.
  2. Can't retrieve the whole key in one go, only the part up to the next dot. So lots of recursion and copying vectors would be required.
  3. Would have to make a decision on what words to search for and add - more useful to have more, but also more work.
