<pre>Well, the slices build a tree, similar to a directory tree.
Example: foo-bar-baz.slice is a child slice of foo-bar.slice. foo-bar.slice is
a child slice of foo.slice which is a child slice of -.slice.
The "-" is used as separator here, the way "/" is used in normal directory
paths. A single "/" refers to the root directory, and accordingly a single "-"
refers to the root slice...
I see that it is sometimes annoying, if you do not know or use the "--"
separator on command lines. However, it's also too late to change this, as this
is API already. I also don't see any better character available.
Sorry, but we cannot really change this.</pre>
