The index achieves that and will work fine for anyone who doesn't
regularly make dynamic changes to their $cdpath. To use your example,
I prefer path-directories-1 to path-directories---git but am open to
alternatives if someone feels strongly. For now, I'll apply your patch,
albeit tweaked to address the point Bart made:

I'm getting files from root mixed in if I use _path_files -W '( .. )'
Is that intentional or a bug? While the documentation states that it can
be an array, full path or paren-enclosed list, it can be a non-array
variable or reference to an array element. That works for things like ..
appearing in $CDPATH so is what I've used.

Thanks Sebastian for updating and contributing the patch.
