So for, eg: "/page/edit" ... "page" would be a property of Root, and
"edit" would be Page/edit.hac?

Or does edit.hac have to be added to HopObject and then check
for the type of object that's being edited each time it's called?

(I know I set up a demo of this stuff a long time ago but my memory  
is fuzzy).

That looks much beefier :)

Several places in the handbook/guide mention properties that are
required, or automatic such as _id, _name ... but those aren't reflected
in the docs.

Actually, I don't see the User or Root objects on your reference site...

It's silly stuff I guess, but it's stuff I keep stumbling over.
Thanks.
