What about "CompoundPath"?

Didn't know this beforehand, but try googling for compound path: apparently this name is being used in Illustrator too.

I agree that PathVector is a poor name (plus I am not sure if inheriting
from std::vector is allowed..., definitely needs improvement as you've
planned).
But I think we should not rename Path. I think it is a better name than
SubPath, which could be taken to mean a part of a contiguous path,
instead of its intent "contiguous path". It would be strange for a user
that only works with contiguous paths to use SubPath instead of Path, I
think. (let's not make 2Geom too SVG-biased in naming)
So let's come up with a better name for PathVector.
Some names that come to mind:
MultiPath
PathSet

anyone?

regards,
Johan
