This is just a stupid starting point just to get something concrete, please change it before merging @mikedilger @v0l @staab @nostrband

I like it, do we have numbers on how many paths are spurious vs legitimately virtual? Mike was saying there were lots of paths pointing to the same relay, but I can't think of why. Examples would be useful.

As far as I know filter.nostr.wine has paths for each pubkey and relay.nostr.band has paths for nip32-labeled content.

I'm working on a relay with the sole purpose of having virtual relays of multiple types with a shared database. I was thinking of putting these in subdomains, but maybe paths are better.

As far as I know filter.nostr.wine has paths for each pubkey and relay.nostr.band has paths for nip32-labeled content.

I know about those, I'm more wondering what an example of a path/qp that doesn't indicate a virtual relay would be.
