 This is getting quite complex for something done internally. But: I
 think we can just add a default_path_func to the scripting layer that
 kicks in if a filter doesn't define its own, and there you can do
 whatever you want. I'll add that.

 (We might need a another bif to get you access to the module name
 though.)
