Path Expression

It is an expression type that has been refined and simplified to use for file system paths.

It allows normal, static paths like /path/to/file.png but also dynamically constructed paths like: /path/to/[field].png so that for every symbolizer rendered the image/svg file path lookup would change depending on the value of a given data field, in this case an attribute called field.
